Share this quote on facebook Howard Malloy: Barbara was alive when I passed out. You must have come in here...
Sigmund Kosterich: No! Why would I have waited for you to awaken if I did?
Howard Malloy: Your fingerprints are on this gun.
Sigmund Kosterich: And so are yours.
Howard Malloy: Yeah, but I know I didn't kill her.

Share this quote on facebook Charles Riggs: You know, I was born in this city, Howard. In our block, we had guys from practically every race and religion you ever hear of... and a couple you didn't. But we got along pretty well.
Howard Malloy: Well, that's the way it ought to be.
Charles Riggs: In our block, nobody cared what country your parents came from or where they went to church. Nobody called you a nasty name... until you were taught there were nasty names and some people were supposed to be called by them -Micks, Polacks, Wops, Limies, Spics, Hunties.
Howard Malloy: That's part of our history. America always has to melt away the differences between people.
Charles Riggs: Sure and most always you don't understand why they're supposed to be different. They're just somebody else's say so, somebody else's influence. Now we got people around who want to make people hate each other, be afraid of each other, just so they can make money out of it. I don't like that.

Share this quote on facebook Barbara Whitfield: Why did you come over to me at that party, Howard?

Barbara Whitfield: Don't I?
