Quotes 

• Joe Logan : I've translated the plays into Sunaquot. And like the Navajo code talkers in World War II, we'll confuse the hell out of our enemies. You two help with pronunciation, please.

  Sammy : Really? What you have here for V-cut, vagi... Uh, actually kind of means like a woman's... Yeah, you know?

  Nadie Logan : What? Oh my God, Joe, he's right.

  Joe Logan : I got this from a very good source.

  [referring to Julie's book] 

  Nadie Logan : Well, something got lost in translation, like maybe tact.

• Nadie Logan : Okay, you hold onto this lead, or I swear I will shove those feathers so far up your asses, you'll fly.

  Chewy : Okay, me first.

• Nadie Logan : You missed on purpose.

  [referring to his championship game loss] 

  Joe Logan : I was tired of winning for them. Felt like I was being used. For three years Coventry cheered every score. They loved me when I was helping them win, but the rest of the school day I was invisible. Julie was the only one who could see me for more than just a poor kid who could play lacrosse. And to her, the Sunaquot were more than some Indians on a reservation, you know? Losing wasn't the problem. I dishonored the game. And I've done it again.

  Nadie Logan : Okay, then fix it.

  Joe Logan : Why do you think I'm here? Let me be your assistant, coach.

• Julie Gifford : So what's this poem about?

  Reed : That smoking hot Indian lady on the butter package.

  Julie Gifford : Yeah, Reed, that's clearly stated in the title, but what else?

  Nadie Logan : That smoking hot Indian lady is a stereotype we Native American women have to overcome. We don't spread easy like butter, we can be tough and strong.
