Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

& Maggie: Living with somebody you love can be lonelier than living entirely alone when the one you love doesn’t love you.

& Maggie: You know what I feel like? I feel all the time like a cat on a hot tin roof.
    Brick: Then jump off the roof, Maggie. Jump off it. Now, cats jump off roofs and they land uninjured. Do it. Jump.

& Brick: What is the victory of a cat on a hot tin roof?
    Maggie: Just staying on it, I guess. Long as she can.

& Brick: Big Daddy... Now what makes him so big? His big heart, his big belly, or his big money?

& Maggie: I’m not living with you. We occupy the same cage, that’s all.

& Big Momma Pollitt: Some single men stop drinking when they get married. Others start.

& Maggie: You can be young without money. But you can’t be old without it.

& Maggie: Where did I fail you? Where did I make my mistake?

& Big Daddy: Ida, what the hell’s the matter with you?
    Maggie: Oh, she’s just so happy, Big Daddy.
    Big Momma: I’m so happy. I just got to cry or something.

& Big Daddy: You better know why you drink, or give up drinking.

& Maggie: On offensive he was useless. On defensive he was a coward. ... Without you, Skipper was nothing. Outside, big, tough, confident. Inside, pure jelly.

& Big Daddy: You and Skipper and millions like you, are living in a kids’ world, playing games, touchdowns, no worries, no responsibilities. Life ain’t no damn football game. Life ain’t just a bunch of high spots. You’re a 30-year-old kid. Soon you’ll be a 50-year-old kid pretending you hearing cheers when there ain’t any. Dreaming and drinking your life away. Heroes in the real world live 24 hours a day, not just two hours in a game.


& Big Daddy: Mendacity! You won’t... You won’t live with mendacity, but you’re an expert at it. The truth is pain and sweat, paying bills and making love to a woman that you don’t love anymore. The truth is dreams that don’t come true, and nobody prints your name in the paper till you die.

& Gooper: Hey, Doc, instead of a needle, haven’t you maybe got a pill to make the pain disappear?
    Dr. Baugh: Sometimes I wish I had a pill to make people disappear.

& Big Daddy: I hate apologies. Especially for the truth. Whatever you did, don’t apologize for it. Just don’t do it again. If you didn’t do it, start doing it.

& Big Daddy: There’s one thing you can’t buy in a Europe fire sale, or any other market on earth. That’s your life. Can’t buy back your life when it’s finished.

& Brick: Why’d you let Ma buy all this stuff?
Big Daddy: The human animal is a beast that eventually has to die. If he’s got money, he buys and he buys. The reason why he buys everything he can is because of a crazy hope that one of the things he buys will be life everlasting, which it never can be.

& Brick: Why won’t you take it? It’ll kill the pain that’s all.
Big Daddy: It’ll kill the senses, too. When you’ve got pain, at least you know you’re alive.

& Big Momma: Plan. Basis. What I say to your plan is... Maggie, what is it Big Daddy says when he’s disgusted?
    Maggie: He says «bull» when he’s disgusted.
    Big Momma: That’s right. I say «bull,» too, like Big Daddy.
    Mae: Coarse language don’t seem called for to me.
    Big Momma: Bull!
