Jimmy DuranteQuotes

Mr. Louie Amendola: Mama, stop worrying. Nothing can happen to her. She's not alone. She's with a man.

Mr. Louie Amendola: [fleeing fire; [w:The Jimmy Durante Show|the Jimmy Durante show] The polar bear rug with the radio inside! I'll miss ]!

Smiler Grogan: [while dying; continuing after coughing in his injured state; lies his head down, almost dead. Benjy takes his hat off, until he jolts awake and grabs Melville's jacket] Look, there's this dough see. There's all this dough. Three hundred and fifty g's! Do you hear what I'm saying? Three hundred and fifty g's! In the park. Rosita. Rosita Beach State Park. Just south of Daygo in Santa Rosita. It's in this box, buried under this... ...buried under this big W. You'll see it! You'll see it under this big W. You can't miss it! A big, big, W! And it's been there. And it's been laying there for fifteen years! Watch out. Watch out for the bulls. Lousy, stinking bulls are everywhere. Bulls all over the place. You just drive down and dig it up. Dig it all up. And then - and then you fix yourselves all up. Fix yourselves all up. Walk down the street like a king, back to the old neighborhood. See the fellas, the dames - the dames, all with a big hello - a big hello for old Smiler. Good old Smiler, everybody's friend. Aunt Belle, I didn't mean to do it!

Lennie Pike: Holy mackerel, take it easy, mister!

Russell: Easy!

Smiler Grogan: [last words] Please! Please say it don't make any difference, Aunt Belle! Please! You gotta say! You gotta tell me it don't make any difference!

Dingy Bell: For heaven's sake, tell him.

Melville Crump: It - It don't make any difference.

Lennie Pike: That guy is dead. You better believe it.

Benjamin: Oh, I believe it all right, but if he jumps up again like he did before, I'm gonna get the hell out of here.
