"What's the matter with you?"

"Morris... he can't count to twenty with his shoes on."

"Headlines don't sell papes, newsies sell papes."

"Maniac, corpse... lovenest, or nude."

"When I dream, on my own, I'm alone but I ain't lonely. For a dreamer nights the only time of day..."

"If we don't sell papes, nobody sells papes. Noboby comes through those gates until they put the price back where it was."

"It's a good idea!"

"If we go on strike, then we are a union, right?"

"You guys, you gotta be ambastards..."

"So you've moved up in the world Spot, got a river veiw and everything."

"Are you bribing me, Joe?"

"Extry, extry Joe. Read all about it."

"In 1899 the streets of New York City echoed with the voices of newsies..."

"Dear me, what is that unpleasant aroma? I fear the sewer may have backed up during the night."

"It's not good to do that... not healthy."

"I got a hot tip on the fourth, won't waste your money."

"Look at this... baby born with two heads. Must be from Brooklyn."

"Come on it's a rigged deck, they've got all the marbles."

"Jack, you done thinkin yet?"

"What, are you out of your mind?"

"Whoa, Jack it's a trick!"

"What are we supposed to do to the bums, kiss em?"

"We ain't got five bucks, we don't even got five cents. Hey your honor, how 'bout I roll you for it, double or nothin'?"

"How do I know you punks won't run the first time some goon comes at you with a club..."

"...how do I know you've got what it takes to win?"

"That aint good enough Jacky-boy."

"Never fear, Brooklyn is here!"

"Where's me pitcha, where's me pitcha?"

"Where does it say my name, where's my name?"

"Look, any scab I see, I soak em... period!"

"Look, they're gonna be playin with my hands alright? Cuz it aint what they say, it's what we say, and nobody aint gonna listen to us unless we make em!"

"I say, that what you say, is what I say."

"I object....... on the grounds of Brooklyn, your honor."

"Tell me I'm seein things, just tell me I'm seein things."

"I'll murder ya!!!"
