Quotes 

• Vincent : Do you want to know why we left New York?

  Roseanne : [just looks at him] 

  Vincent : I robbed this old lady who lived next door to us.

  Roseanne : You did?

  Vincent : Yeah. Smashed up a bunch of stuff, got caught. They said I was walking the halls like a damaged little fucker.

  [laughs] 

  Roseanne : I think you still are.

• Roseanne : You're such a weirdo. I don't even know why I listen to you.

  Vincent : Because your heart knows I can see it.

• Roseanne : What's wrong with you? Why are you always giving people a reason to laugh at you?

  Vincent : I'm sorry, was I not fitting in?

• [last lines] 

  Roseanne : What a strange path it took to find my heart.

• Jimmy : [after their conversation is interrupted by his coach]  Can't we kill him instead?

  Roseanne : We'll get him next if we have to.

• Roseanne : Did you ever have a girlfriend?

  Vincent : When I was around 14 in New York, I knew this college chick named Naomi.

  Roseanne : Wow, Vincent, an older woman. I'm impressed!

  [giggles] 

  Vincent : We did lots of crazy stuff together, and I really wanted something to happen because she was super foxy...

  Roseanne : What kind of crazy stuff?

  Vincent : One time late at night she took me to this place that she said her friend lived, and nobody was home and the steam pipes were leaking and there was a hot haze in the room. We sat down on the couch and smoked crack.

  Roseanne : [taken aback]  What? What was that like?

  Vincent : Your mind takes off like a jet plane. Pretty soon you go into the sound barrier and everything just goes dead. Then you crash... then you want to die.

• Roseanne : [after she's discovered Vincent's photos that he took of her and Jimmy]  You knew...

  Vincent : What?

  Roseanne : You knew... you knew that I...

  Vincent : Murdered your stepfather? Of course I knew.

  Roseanne : You're insane.

  Vincent : I followed you. I took a lot of pictures that night.

  Roseanne : Why didn't you take them to the police?

  Vincent : [slight chuckle]  Why would I take them to the police? I *hate* the police.
