Quotes
-
Scott Smith : I'm sorry, I pissed in your pool.
-
Harvey Milk : If we had someone in the government who saw things the way we see them, the way the black community has black leaders who look out for their interests...
Scott Smith : You're gonna run for Supervisor, is that the idea?
Harvey Milk : I could go right for mayor, but I think I should work my way up to it... You'll be my campaign manager.
Scott Smith : Because I have so much experience in politics.
Harvey Milk : Politics is theater. It doesn't matter if you win. You make a statement. You say, 'I'm here, pay attention to me.'
-
Scott Smith : [Harvey and Scott are finally sitting down to dinner] Don't say ANYTHING.
Harvey Milk : [tucks his napkin under the collar of his shirt, eats a bite] Can I just tell you...
Scott Smith : If you say anything, about politics, or the campaign, or what speech you have to give, or anything, I swear to God I'm gonna stab you with this fork.
Harvey Milk : I just wanted to say... that this is the most wonderful dinner I have ever had.
[Both start laughing]
Harvey Milk : If we lose this, it'll just be you and me again, I promise.
-
Harvey Milk : [Scott Smith is heading down the stairs and Harvey tries to make eye contact] Hey, hey...
[Scott stops and looks at him]
Harvey Milk : I'm Harvey.
Scott Smith : Okay, Harvey...
[smiles a little awkwardly]
Harvey Milk : Today's my birthday.
[Scott laughs]
Harvey Milk : No, it actually is my birthday. At midnight.
Scott Smith : [still smiling, a little skeptical] Really.
Harvey Milk : And, believe it or not, I don't have any plans.
[raises one eyebrow as he speaks]
Harvey Milk : Some people took me out after work.
Scott Smith : Oh, and that would be, ah, let me guess... Ma Bell or AT&T.
Harvey Milk : The Great American Insurance Company. I'm part of that corporate establishment that, let me guess, you think is the cause of all the evil in the world from Vietnam to diaper rash.
Scott Smith : You left out bad breath.
Scott Smith : [Harvey covers his mouth; both start laughing] Just kidding.
[pause]
Harvey Milk : You're not going to let me spend my birthday all by myself, are you?
Scott Smith : [gently teasing] Listen, Harvey, you're pretty cute, but... I don't date guys over forty.
Harvey Milk : Well, then this is my lucky night.
Scott Smith : Why's that?
Harvey Milk : I'm still thirty-nine...
[showing Scott his watch]
Harvey Milk : It's only eleven-fifteen.
[pauses, leans forward and kisses Scott]
-
Scott Smith : Are you on uppers or something?
Harvey Milk : No, this is just plain old me.
-
Harvey Milk : Forty years old and I haven't done a thing that I'm proud of.
Scott Smith : You keep eating this cake, you're gonna be fat by the time you're fifty.
-
Scott Smith : [reading a threatening note] 'Harvey Milk will have a dream journey and nightmare to hell. A night of horror. He will be stabbed and have your genitals, cock balls and prick cut off.' I'm calling the police.
Harvey Milk : They probably wrote it. Look at it this way, if they try to kill me I'll get the sympathy vote, we might get the push we need.
Scott Smith : You think this is funny? Look at it!
Harvey Milk : It's a total joke. I mean, it's got no rhythm, humor, it's insulting.
[tacks it to the refrigerator]
Scott Smith : Don't do that.
Harvey Milk : If you put it away in a drawer it just gets bigger and scarier. Now it's right here, it can't get us.
-
McConnely : There's Man's Law and there's God's Law in this neighborhood.
Harvey Milk : Uh huh.
McConnely : And in this city.
Scott Smith : You know, we pay taxes!
McConnely : The San Francisco Police Force is happy to enforce either. Have a good day.
[leaves]
Harvey Milk : [calling after him] Yeah, thank you for the warm welcome to the neighborhood!
[to Scott]
Harvey Milk : Schmuck.
-
Scott Smith : Looks like you're gonna make it to fifty after all.
