Quotes 

  • Frank Stark : We give you love and affection, don't we? Well, then, what is it? Was it because we went to that party? Well, you know what kind of drunken brawls those kind of parties turn into. It's not a place for kids.

    Carol Stark : A minute ago, you said you didn't care if he drinks.

    Mrs. Stark : He said a little drink.

    Jim Stark : You're tearing me apart!

    Carol Stark : [shocked]  What?

    Jim Stark : You, you say one thing, he says another, and everybody changes back again!

    Carol Stark : That's a fine way to behave!

    Mrs. Stark : Well, you know who he takes after.

  • Frank Stark : You'll learn. When you're older, Jim.

    Jim Stark : Well, I don't think that I want to learn that way.

    Carol Stark : Well, it doesn't matter anyway, because we're moving.

    Jim Stark : [grabbing his mother]  You're not going to tear me loose again.

    Frank Stark : Well, this is news to me! Just why are we moving?

    Carol Stark : Oh, do I have to spell it out.

    Jim Stark : You are not going to use me as an excuse again!

    Carol Stark : I don't.

    Jim Stark : Everytime you can't face yourself, you blame it on me!

    Carol Stark : That is not true!

    Jim Stark : You say it's because of me, you say it's because of the neighborhood! You use every other phony excuse! Mom, I just... Once I want to do something right! And I don't want you to run away from me again! Dad.

    Frank Stark : This is all going too fast for me, son.

    Jim Stark : You better give me something. You better give me something fast.

    Carol Stark : Jimmy, you're very young. A foolish decision now could wreck you're whole life. In ten years, you'll never know this happened.

    Jim Stark : Dad, answer her. Tell her. Ten years. Dad, let me hear you answer her. Dad.

    Jim Stark : [as Mr. Stark sits quietly]  Dad, stand up for me.

    Jim Stark : [grabbing his father and yanking him up as Mr. Stark still sits quietly]  Stand up!

  • Jim Stark : [sitting down, hugging his father's legs helplessly]  Help me!

    Frank Stark : Look, Jim. You can depend on me. Trust me. Whatever comes, we'll, we'll fix it together. I swear it. Now Jim, stand up. I'll stand up with you. I'll try and be as strong as you want me to be. Come on.

  • Jim Stark : I don't think I want anything, I'm nervous.

    Frank Stark : My first day of school, I was so nervous, Mother made me eat so much, I couldn't swallow until recess.

  • Frank Stark : I wouldn't make a hasty decision. Nobody can make a snap decision. We've got to consider the pros and cons, make a list, get advice... Have I ever stopped you from doing anything?
