• Nellie LaRoy : I hate when people put fucking toppings on ice cream. Doesn't need it. It messes up a good thing. You know what I mean? I fucking hate that. God, I've never done nothing except disappoint people my whole life. Teachers told me I was no good. Boys told me I was no good. Every fucking casting director in the city told me I was too short or I was too fat. Usually I was too fat. You know, my mama actually had some fat years too. You wouldn't know it now, looking at her, but she did. They fucked up with me, Manny. They really fucked up with me. 'Cause I make 'em squirm. And I like making 'em squirm. Let 'em know that I got here on my terms, not theirs. And when I'm done, I'm gonna dance my ass off into the night. And they'll know - everyone will fucking know that they could never control one goddamn fucking thing. Do you like ice cream?

  Manny Torres : What have you been in?

  Nellie LaRoy : Nothing yet.

• Nellie LaRoy : Hot damn! Jack Conrad? You are even more fuckable in person.

• Nellie LaRoy : [Is at the Hearst party, struggling to cope with the upper-class snobbery. Finally she breaks:]  Actually, I've got one. A bear and a rabbit are shittin' in the woods one day. And the bear says to the rabbit, 'Hey, do ya ever have a problem with the shit sticking to your fur?' And the rabbit finishes shitting and he says, 'No, I never do. Why?' And the bear says, 'Fan-fuckin'-tastic!' And he grabs the rabbit behind the ears and...

  [She grabs the rabbit fur scarf from around Mildred Yates' neck and imitates wiping her butt] 

  Elinor St. John : [Dumbfounded]  I can't believe you just...

  Nellie LaRoy : Why not? Why, haven't you heard what they say about me? I'm a degenerate fuckin' animal. 'Oh, Nellie!' Look at them. 'Oh, who knows what she might do? She's from Jersey, y'know.' This is what a degenerate fuckin' animal from Jersey does.

  [She viciously downs the buffet like an animal, to everyone's horror] 

  Nellie LaRoy : That's what the degenerate fuckin' animal from Jersey does. So y'know what? I'm gonna let you go on fuckin' your cousins, polishing your guest lists, plying your fuckin' underage mistresses with fuckin' Beaujolais, you sick fucks! I'm the animal? What is this shit? What is this shit? Oh, I'm the sick one! I'm the fuckin' crazy one! You people make me fuckin' sick! You're not better than me! You're not! You're not fuckin' better than me. I don't need this shit. Y'know what? I'm gonna go home, I'm gonna stick some coke up my pussy. And you all can stick your champagne flutes up your rose-smellin', candy-tastin', snow-white fuckin' assholes!

  [She goes to leave, but quickly runs back inside. She then projectile vomits on the floor, horrifying and disgusting everyone] 

  William Randolph Hearst : My rug! You puked on my rug!

  [Nellie proceeds to projectile vomit on Hearst, before taking a sarcastic bow and leaving] 

• Nellie LaRoy : Well, that was a waste of time!

• Nellie LaRoy : I ain't a fucking pussy!
