Frankie Croyden Quotes in Tuff Turf (1985)

Frankie Croyden: Hey, everybody's staring at me.

Morgan Hiller: Yes, they are. Well, what's happening now is, you see; the girls are wondering where they've seen you before and the guys are wondering why the hell they haven't.

Morgan Hiller: You going to college?

Frankie Croyden: I'll be lucky if I even graduate. I'll probably just get married, don't need college for that.

Morgan Hiller: Your parents happy about that?

Frankie Croyden: My dad is... my mom died last year of cancer.

Ronnie: I don't know. If you ask me, he's either the toughest guy at Lawson or the stupidest.

Feather: No way. He went to one of those brain factories back east, and I mean the guy's head is totally crammed.

Frankie Croyden: Yeah, with bullshit!

Feather: So, are you going to get a ring?

Frankie Croyden: [sighs]

Ronnie: If you do, get it at Woolworth's. Suzie Rostelli got hers there; it almost looks like the real thing!

Feather: I saw it; it really does.

Ronnie: Amazing!

Frankie Croyden: Excuse me! I promised I'd meet Ronnie at Woolworth's to look at wedding rings.

Morgan Hiller: Frankie, you don't belong to Nick.

Frankie Croyden: Well, maybe not. But, I don't belong to you, either.

Frankie Croyden: I thought things were supposed to be easy when you have money.

Morgan Hiller: It is, if you don't take it seriously.

Frankie Croyden: How do you do that?

Morgan Hiller: By letting it go. I don't think you can hold onto anything until you let it go.

Nick Hauser: It was all for you, Frankie.

Frankie Croyden: It was NEVER for me, it's your whole life.

Frankie Croyden: How many bullets are left in this gun, Nick? Enough for Morgan? For my father? For everybody else who doesn't fit in your turf?
