Scruno: What's 'e matter, Ben?
Ben: Go no, go on, go on...
Scruno: Wait a minute. Don't go brushin' ME off, you know, 'cause you got a funny look in your face.

Danny Dolan: Muggs ain't yella.
Horse Trainer Morgan: I know it, but he's afraid. Afraid of that horse. Afraid of speed.
Danny Dolan: Oh, I'm scared o' things, too. I mean, like... like... bein' on a high place.
Horse Trainer Morgan: Everybody has some fear. Fear of snakes. Fear of fires. Some people are afraid of losing their jobs or of growing old.
Danny Dolan: Den... den you mean dere ain't no disgrace in bein' scared.
Horse Trainer Morgan: It's only disgraceful if you fail to fight your fear. Muggs has been fighting but he can't lick it. He's not a jockey, and he never will be.

Peewee: Hey, you know, guys, I got an idea.
Scruno, Skinny: [together] Yeah?
