Quotes
-
Harriette Winslow : So what do you have to say for yourself?
[Clarence remains silent and sits down]
Harriette Winslow : I'm surprised, after all you have done, you only have a whole lot to say. You know what really bothers me, Clarence, you took Eddie and Steve with you. Now if you want to mess up your life, that's your problem. But when you mess with me and mine, you in big trouble. Swagger in here with your cigarettes and your arrogant attitude and you think you're so cool.
[Stands Clarence up]
Harriette Winslow : Let me tell you something: you're not cool, Clarence. Cool is respecting yourself and the people that care about you. Cool is knowing the difference between right and wrong. And when you make a mistake, having the courage to admit to it. That's what cool is Clarence. Clarence, are you sorry for any of this?
Clarence : [remorseless] Yeah. I'm sorry I got caught.
Harriette Winslow : [disgusted by his attitude] Okay. I've given you every opportunity. Get upstairs and pack your bags. You're going home.
Clarence : What, you bluffin'?
Harriette Winslow : No, I'm not. Get upstairs and pack your stuff, Clarence. I'll call your mother and tell her you're on your way.
Clarence : [Clarence walks to the staircase and turns back to Harriette] Fine! I don't need you! Cousin!
