While I work on Felix Escellun’s analysis here are some quotes that I love from Two Against the World! They are all said by Nicky unless stated otherwise.
* “But you gotta look at pressure as an opportunity to be great.”
* “Pressure is a door, and waiting for you on the other side is success. How you get through that door is up to you.”
* Mc: “I’m not from this dimension.”
Nicky: “So, like from Upstate?”
* “My voice ain’t nothing to write home about, but I’ll curse in Italian and maybe people will think that I’m an opera singer.”
* “Brace yourself, love, when it happens, you’ll be the Mrs. in no time.” (Replace with Mr or mine for other pronouns)
* “You gotta treat the one you care for with the utmost respect, in my mind.”
* “Peaks and valleys, sweets. Sometimes the valleys get a little steep.” “ We don’t have to go to the valley alone.”
* “Because as much as I care about you, as much as I need you, the most important thing to me is that your happy. And if that means you’d be happier back where you came from, then so be it.”
* “And ain’t nothing easier in this world than loving you.”
* “I think you make loving you so easy.”
* “I’d take an eternity in hell if it meant one more day with you.”
* “The best part about going to bed with you is knowing I get to wake up to you.”
* (From the Masseur) “It doesn’t take work to fall in love, but it does take work to stay in love. Doing little stuff like this for your partner every now and then reminds them you care.”
* “I love hard and I live fast and you gotta be the same way.”
* “And all I want. All I ever want… is to give you what you want.”
* “But I do think that what we see, what we experience - this life. It ain’t all there is. There’s something more.”
* “I think forever sounds nice if your involved.”
* “It’s funny though. A billion stars in the sky and I cant keep my eyes off of you.”
* “People are what count, Mc. Things don’t.”
* “And Mc, my sweet love, you are my weakness”
* “You can still love something and leave it”
* “The mind can be a noisy and messy place.”
* “I learned that life is to short to be worried about the future. What’s going to happen, is bound to happen. We must enjoy the days we have”
* Mc: “Not everyone wants that kind of attention, Nicky”
Nick: “ Sure they do. They’re just worried that if they do get that kinda spotlight, they’re going to make a fool outta themselves. But what you people don’t realize is that just by getting that kind of attention, you already won. Even if you totally screw the pooch, you got to be the one up in lights.”
* “That’s the problem with being poor in this country. If you wanna get some bread you gotta rob the bakery.”
* “Tell me I’m lying! We’re a couple of fools to think we know better than our bodies. When Cupid’s arrow strikes, we ain’t gonna have a chance.”
* Ralph: “If we’re in the movies, why’d I get a life of chronic asthma and a booze hound mother who used to beat me up as bad as the boys🤨” (I’m sorry but this line gets me every-time lmao)
* “Maybe, but it’s hard to see a way out when the city walls are closing in.”
* “My opinion, you gotta leave the nest if you ever want to know how to build one of your own.”
* “I learned, that life is to short to be worried about the future.”
