    42nd Street quotes

    • Julian Marsh: Sawyer, you listen to me, and you listen hard. Two hundred people, two hundred jobs, two hundred thousand dollars, five weeks of grind and blood and sweat depend upon you. It's the lives of all these people who've worked with you. You've got to go on, and you've got to give and give and give. They've got to like you. Got to. Do you understand? You can't fall down. You can't because your future's in it, my future and everything all of us have is staked on you. All right, now I'm through, but you keep your feet on the ground and your head on those shoulders of yours and go out, and Sawyer, you're going out a youngster but you've got to come back a star!

    • Slim Murphy: Hey got a match?

      Pat Denning: Yep... why I guess so... yeah.

      Slim Murphy: Don't happen to know a guy named Pat Denning do ya?

      Pat Denning: Why yes.

      Slim Murphy: We got a message for him. This guy Pat Denning's a pretty wise mug but he ain't wise enough and if he don't lay off that Dorothy Brock dame, it's gonna be just too bad... for Denning, get me?

      Pat Denning: Alright I'll tell him.

      Slim Murphy: Yeah well...

      [punches Pat in the mouth and Pat falls down]

      Slim Murphy: that's so ya don't forget.

      [He and Slim kick Pat then run off]

      Peggy Sawyer: Ohhhhh Pat... Pat... Pat... who were they?

      Pat Denning: Friends... with good advice.
