My favorite quote is:

Newman to Scott: "I'm gonna beat him, mister. I beat him all night and I'm gonna beat him all day."

Also Newman to Scott: "When did you adopt me?"

My favorite was Sarah's: "No, there's no tomorrow, not with you. You own all the tomorrow's because you buy them today, and you buy cheap.

My favorite line is because of Scott's deliver: "You owe me MONEY!"

And the final lines of the movie between Gleason and Newman. The mutual respect surrounded by all this scum, the dignity of the warriors, the actual players, is conveyed.
