Rodney Roach Quotes in Joe's Apartment (1996)

Rodney Roach: Well, you know, we've gotta get Lily back, too.

Ralph Roach: Forget that. I'm a cockroach, not Santy Claus.

Rodney Roach: Ralphie! I'm surprised at you! Does this mean you're giving up?

Ralph Roach: Give up? Give up? What are you saying to me? How come us roaches have been able to outlast the dinosaurs? How do we survive poison and persecution? How do we keep on crawling, in the face of overwhelming odds? I'll tell you how: because WE NEVER GIVE UP! A true cockroach never gives up. They can stomp us, they can pop us, but they'll never ever stop us. Someday the great H-bomb is gonna drop, and we'll have the whole planet to ourselves. I don't care if we gotta call in favors from every roach, rat, and pigeon in New York City. WE AIN'T GIVING UP ON JOE!
