Mahogany Sunrise Quotes

John Morrison: You know, one could argue all the great works of music, literature and all art for that matter. They all were about or inspired by one thing... the booty.
Jackson Schultz: You don't have a girlfriend.
John Morrison: No, I do not. But then again I'm not the artsy-fartsy one needing inspiration, you are. So, slow-hand, what sort of music do you like anyway?
Jackson Schultz: I mean you name it really. I like ah... old school Jazz, Punk, College Radio stuff.
John Morrison: College radio? Is that even a genre? Let me ask you question. You think old freewheelin' Bob Dylan was sitting around smoking big fat doobies and listening to Reggae when he was writing Blowin' in the Wind? No sir he was not.
Jackson Schultz: Look, there's nothing wrong with having diverse musical influences. I mean, uh, what about Van Halen he was a classically trained pianist.
John Morrison: Nah he never dicked around with that shit.
Jackson Schultz: Eddie Van Halen. Dude, the classics were his foundation before he ever banged out Eruption on his Frakenstrat.

Vincent Morelli: And what are you eating? What do you call that?

Vincent Morelli: Smells like poop. Was that intestines? That's like vomit.

Vincent Morelli: Yeah, but come on all that I'm saying is it doesn't look too appetizing.
