• (Matt Damon) "You're daddy is out sweeping streets because he took every last dime he had, and used it to pay up every man and woman he owed and every business who worked for him, instead of declaring bankruptcy like everyone else in town, including your best friend Wilbur Charles' dad, Raymond, which is why he's able to sit around all day long on his dignity.

• (imdbname:0597670) "It's the greatest game there is."
• (Matt Damon) "You really think so?"
• (imdbname:0597670) "Ask anybody. It's fun. It's hard and you stand out there on that green, green grass, and it's just you and the ball and there ain't nobody to beat up on but yourself; just like Mister Newnan keeps hittin' himself with the golf club every time he gets angry. He's broken his toe three times on account of it. It's the only game I know that you can call a penalty on yourself, if you're honest, which most people are. There just ain't no other game like it."

• (imdbname:0597670) "Brain cells?"
• (Matt Damon) "That's right Hardy. You see every drink of liquor you take kills a thousand brain cells. Now that doesn't much matter 'cos we got billions more. And first the sadness cells die so you smile real big. And then the quiet cells go so you just say everything real loud for no reason at all. That'ok, that's ok because the stupid cells go next, so everything you say is real smart. And finally, come the memory cells. These are tough sons of bitches to kill."

• (Matt Damon) "You gonna hit the ball or you gonna dance with it?"

Charlize Theron as Adele Invergordon

• (Charlize Theron) "Ten years and not one single, solitary word from you? You don't do that to someone you love. I deserve better, I deserve some correspondence of some indication of how you felt. Junuh, I don't know what happened to you -- but whatever it was -- it couldn't have been as unbearable as a woman waitin' with no end in sight -- Wonderin if she's, remembered or forgotton by the man she loves -- You never even said you were sorry -- And now I'm supposed to just run into your arms and melt like butter on a hot muffin?"
• (Matt Damon) "I'm sorry Adele -- I am, truly sorry --"
• (Charlize Theron) "It's too late for 'I'm sorry' Junuh."
• (Matt Damon) "But; Then; Well, tell me what to say -- It was too long ago --"
• (Charlize Theron) "No it wasn't -- It was just a moment ago --"

• (imdbname:0597670) "Confused, broken -- and unable to face a return to a hero's welcome -- Junuh just disappeared -- Hopin to forget -- and to be forgotton --"

• (imdbname:0597670) "I heard my dad say that you won every golf tournament there ever was in the South and how you hit a drive so long that they made you stop playin for 20 minutes just to measure it for a record -- and how you used to swing righty, but you were in the woods once by this tree so there was no room to swing righty -- so you borrowed somebody's lefty club and hit the ball six inches from the hole --"
