Jamaal: Yeah, yes I think you could say I do.

I reckon if I'd've gotten with the bothers sooner, we could have nipped it in the bud and put our foot in Rollin's ass, know what I'm sayin'?
Jim Brown: Yeah, but you don't need a religion for that. Kid, you could have just joined a gang.
Jamaal: What's the difference?
