Ronny Cammareri Quotes in Moonstruck (1987)

Ronny Cammareri: I'm in love with you.

Loretta Castorini: [slaps him twice] Snap out of it!

Ronny Cammareri: Loretta, I love you. Not like they told you love is, and I didn't know this either, but love don't make things nice - it ruins everything. It breaks your heart. It makes things a mess. We aren't here to make things perfect. The snowflakes are perfect. The stars are perfect. Not us. Not us! We are here to ruin ourselves and to break our hearts and love the wrong people and *die*. The storybooks are *bullshit*. Now I want you to come upstairs with me and *get* in my bed!

Ronny Cammareri: You're gonna marry my brother? Why you wanna sell your life short? Playing it safe is just about the most dangerous thing a woman like you could do. You waited for the right man the first time, why didn't you wait for the right man again?

Loretta Castorini: He didn't come!

Ronny Cammareri: I'm here!

Loretta Castorini: That's impossible! It was ruined when I got here! *You* ruined *my* life!

Ronny Cammareri: Everything seems like nothing to me now, 'cause I want you in my bed. I don't care if I burn in hell. I don't care if you burn in hell. The past and the future is a joke to me now. I see that they're nothing. I see they ain't here. The only thing that's here is you - and me.

Ronny Cammareri: A bride without a head!

Loretta Castorini: A wolf without a foot!

Loretta Castorini: You ruined my life!

Ronny Cammareri: No, I didn't.

Loretta Castorini: Oh, yes, you did! Oh, yes, you did! Y'know, you got them bad eyes, like a gypsy, and I don't know why I didn't see it yesterday. Bad luck! That's what it is. Is that all I'm ever gonna have? I should have taken a rock and killed myself years ago!

Ronny Cammareri: Chrissy, over on the wall, bring me the big knife. I want to cut my throat.
