Mysterious Skin Quotes

Jeff Licon as Eric

• (Jeff Licon) "Okay's a relative term."

• (Jeff Licon) "Incognito boy scott?"

• (Jeff Licon) "I got a postcard from Wendy."
• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "I think she's mad at me because I owe her like 3 letters."
• (Jeff Licon) "Yeah, her last P.S. is "Tell f***face to write me.""

• (Jeff Licon) "So you still haven't written; big surprise; but Wendy says you're doing OK, which is cool. I've been wanting to tell you about this strange guy I met 3 weeks ago. No, we're not f***ing, get your mind out of the gutter, perv. He's not even gay, I don't think; in fact, his vibe is kinda weirdly asexual. His name is Brian Lackey. He lives in Little River and, like yours truly, attends Hutchinson Loser Community College -- So anyways, the day you left, your mom and I found him literally on your doorstep, looking for you. He says you and him played Little League together like 10 years ago. He was the worst player on the team, blah-blah-blah-blah-blah -- He's full of questions about you. But, of course, I haven't told him much, i.e. about your "line of work". I did say you were queer like me, only 'cause I figured you wouldn't care. But now, are you ready for the good part? He thinks that when you and him were little, you were both abducted and examined by space aliens. How brilliant is that? But he was completely serious when he told me this. Like you should've seen the look in his eyes. So, what's the story, dude? Were you abducted by a UFO or what? P.S.; Are your crabs gone yet?"

Brady Corbet as Brian

• (Brady Corbet) "If you're gonna make fun, I just as soon watch it by myself."

• (Brady Corbet) "I was bleeding, I kept passing out, I wet my bed, and you never asked why."

• (Jeff Licon) "What?"
• (Brady Corbet) "I'm drunk. I've never been drunk in my life."
• (Jeff Licon) "I'm corrupting you. Finally."

Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Neil

• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "You called me your f***ing -- angel."

• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "Different folks, different strokes."

• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "As we sat there listening to the carolers, I wanted to tell Brian that it was over now and that everything would be okay. But that was a lie, plus I couldn't speak anyway. I wish there was some way to go back and undo the past. But there wasn't. There was nothing we could do. So I just stayed silent and tried to telepathically communicate how sorry I was about what happened. And I thought of all the grief and suffering and f***ed up stuff in the world, and it made me want to escape. I wished with all my heart we could just leave this world behind. Rise like two angels in the night and magically disappear."

• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "I am so sick of this stinkin' little buttcrack of a town."

• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "I met Wendy Peterson when I was ten. She was eleven, one grade ahead of me in school. If I wasn't queer we would have ended up having sloppy teenage sex and getting pregnant, contributing more f***ed-up unwanted kids to society. But instead, she became my soulmate. And -- one true partner in crime."

• (Michelle Trachtenberg) "I know."
• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "I never told Eric or my Mom. And I know some people might think it's f_____d up, or whatever? But what happened that summer -- is a huge part of me. No one ever made me feel that way, before or since. Like I was special."
• (Michelle Trachtenberg) "Neil, you were eight years old."
• (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) "Yeah, but he really loved me. I mean, there were other kids sometimes, but -- I was his prize. I was his one true love."

Michelle Trachtenberg as Wendy

• (Michelle Trachtenberg) "I can't believe I'm finally getting out of this f***ing nowhere town."

• (Michelle Trachtenberg) "You'd better be careful."
• (Jeff Licon) "Of what?"
• (Michelle Trachtenberg) "I'm serious, Eric. You're not in Modesto anymore. I see the way you look at him."
• (Jeff Licon) "He's so beautiful. I can't help it. He's like a god."
• (Michelle Trachtenberg) "You don't have to tell me, I was infatuated with him too once. But I know all Neil's secrets and there's s*** there you don't even want to know about. Trust me. Once I'm gone, you'll be all Neil has and you have to understand one thing. Where normal people have a heart, Neil McCormick has a bottomless black hole. And if you don't watch out, you can fall in and get lost forever."

• (Mary Lynn Rajskub) "Feel that? It's the sex organs. They're gone. The aliens, they experiment on cattle, because the poor things are so defenseless. Us, on the other hand; they can't kill us. They just leave behind the hidden memories of what they've done. Which in a way is almost worse. Notice anything else strange? There's no blood. They took that, too."

Bill Sage as Coach

• (Bill Sage) "I like you, Neil. I like you so much."
