DIRECTOR: I give you a chance for a lead in a Broadway show and you walk out the door?!
TONY: Who cares?
DIRECTOR: Who cares? Nobody has to care! In this business you don’t hafta care about me an’ I don’t hafta care about you! But if you can’t follow that, follow this: you wanna dance here, you follow MY rules! It’s not a democracy! You know, you’re not the greatest dancer that ever hit Broadway. What you have is anger, and a certain intensity. That’s what I need to make this show work. What do you think, you’re so great you’re gonna score another show? Is that it? The best thing you ever scored in your life is Laura, but you even blew that cuz you let it go to your head. You’re different kinds of people, and now matter how much you carry on, you’re never gonna change that. If you had a half a brain inthat thick skull of yours, you’d stop worrying about changing other people and start worrying about changing yourself.
TONY: Everybody uses everybody, don’t they?
DIRECTOR: Go to hell, Manero.
Everybody has epitoms, don’t they?
Far from over.
Finding out the hard way.
Hope we never change.
I love you too much.
I’m never gonna give up.

LAURA: And then I’d have to cancel my manicure.
TONY: I’d have to cancel my meeting with the mayor.
LAURA: And then I’d have to cancel my yoga class.
TONY: That’s okay. I’d have to cancel my brain operation.
LAURA: Do you think that’s a good idea? (They kiss)

Life goes on.
Moody girl.
Someone belonging to someone.
Stayin’ alive.
Take your bloody hands off me! Don’t you ever touch me again! Who do you think you’re dealing with, some little groupie that jumps when you call? Is that who you think I am? We met, I liked you, we made it. What do you think it was, true love? And you think I used you, what about you using me?? Everybody uses everybody … don’t they?!
