Quotes 

  • Duff Anderson : It's just that, seems to me us colored folks do a whole lot of church-going, it's the white folks that need it real bad.

  • Josie : I can't stand to see you like that; but I know you can't help it.

    Duff Anderson : Stop being so damn understanding.

  • Duff Anderson : Don't tell me; I know.

  • Rev. Dawson : And since we're talking: my wife and I don't want you hanging around our daughter.

    Duff Anderson : Well, that figures.

  • Jocko : You think you're gonna make it with her?

    Duff Anderson : How 'bout the key?

    Jocko : I bet she's easy jam. Just get her drunk.

  • Duff Anderson : You goin' back inside?

    Josie : Yes, aren't you?

    Duff Anderson : No. Never had much use for hell-howlers. How 'bout you?

    Josie : My father's the preacher.

    Duff Anderson : Oh yeah? Well, I guess you ain't got no choice.

  • Duff Anderson : You know, baby, I just can't figure you out.

    Josie : How d'you mean?

    Duff Anderson : Why d'you come out with me? You slummin' or somethin'?

  • Duff Anderson : So what you doin' with a cat like me in a joint like this?

  • Duff Anderson : Well, either we're gonna hit the hay or get married. Now, you don't want to hit the hay and I don't want to get married.

    Josie : You have some very primitive ideas, don't you?

    Duff Anderson : All right, so I'm primitive. So what d'you want with me?

  • Josie : I'm going to stay. Another year, anyway.

    Duff Anderson : You got more guts than me, baby. It's a no-good town.

    Josie : It's better than it used to be. Eight years ago they still had a lynching here. They tied a man to a car and dragged him to death. My father knew who did it, but he didn't say anything.

  • Duff Anderson : If I was you, baby - I wouldn't go 'round stickin' out my jugular vein.

  • Rev. Dawson : Well, it looks like we'll be getting our new school.

    Duff Anderson : How come you all ain't sendin' 'em to the same school?

    Rev. Dawson : Well, you've got to go easy. We haven't had any trouble in town for eight years. And we're not going to have any now.

    Duff Anderson : Can't live without trouble, can you?

  • Rev. Dawson : It's hard to know how to talk to the white folks these days.

    Duff Anderson : Yeah. Well, I guess it ain't never been easy.

    Rev. Dawson : It's a changing times.

  • Rev. Dawson : I guess, you're a churchman, aren't you?

    Duff Anderson : I guess I ain't.

  • Duff Anderson : Wouldn't be no picnic for you. I ain't exactly housebroken.

  • Duff Anderson : Guess you want a house full of pickaninnies too, huh?

    Josie : Don't call them that.

  • Riddick : How's that job comin'?

    Duff Anderson : Well, it ain't the railroad. Those guys are scared. They say they've never known nothin' but takin' it.

    Jocko : They all got families to support

    Duff Anderson : Yeah. That's right, Jocko. Those white guys sure shoot up at you like a yeast cake if you just cock an eye at 'em.

  • Duff Anderson : You jivin' me?

  • Duff Anderson : You'll be better off without me. I ain't fit to live with no more. It's just like a lynchin'. Maybe they don't use a knife on you, but they got other ways.

  • [last lines] 

    Duff Anderson : Ain't gonna be easy, baby - but it's gonna be all right. Baby, I feel so free inside.

  • Joe : You know, man, that guy was trying to be friendly.

    Duff Anderson : That ain't my idea of friendliness.

    Barney : You got to watch yourself pretty close.

    Willie : Yeah, you want to get along, act the nigger.

    Duff Anderson : Like hell. You know, if you fellows stuck together 'stead of letting them walk all over you, they might not try it.

    Joe : Like hell they wouldn't.

    Willie : They been doin' it all my life.

    Duff Anderson : Well, maybe it's time you stopped letting them.

  • Duff Anderson : How 'bout that furniture plant?

    Barman : Man, the darkest thing they got in there is Coca-Cola.

    Duff Anderson : Yeah.

    Barman : Now, if you want to work like a real nigger, you can always go out and chop cotton.

    Duff Anderson : They done that too long in my family.

    Barman : They pay you three bucks a day an' all the cotton you can eat.

  • Rev. Dawson : You can be cocky now, boy. But you won't last. You won't make it. I just feel sorry for Josie. I knew it wouldn't work out.

    Duff Anderson : Well, at least she ain't married to no white man's nigger. You been stoopin' so long, Reverend, you don't even know how to stand straight no more. You just half a man!
