I know that Ronald Reagan will not say the word AIDS.

Blanca: You should have heard them talking, like not knowing is an okay thing.
Pray: They're young.
Blanca: That's my point. They don't know shit about shit. It's my job to teach them. What's the point in being their mother if I can't teach them to do to protect them from the one thing we all know is comin'.
Pray: Then tell them to be careful.
Blanca: They're kids! Most of the grown men we know aren't careful. They gotta get checked and not just for their sake. They need to know so they don't hurt nobody else.
Pray: I stopped getting tested.
Blanca: What?
Pray: After Custus got sick and I saw how the AZT made him sicker. He's not the first. I know about five people where the drugs killed them before the virus did.
Blanca: You don't know that.
Pray: I know that Ronald Reagan will not say the word AIDS. Health insurance will not cover any treatment. The world wants us dead. They don't think this is a plague. They think it's some sort of devine justice or Darwin's answer for sodomy.

Candy: You come to rub salt in my wounds?
Angel: No.
Candy: I don't need your sympathy.
Angel: Why you gotta be like this? I'm comin' out here tryin' to be friendly and you actin' like I got some type of alterior motive. Just because we in different houses doesn't mean I don't got feelings for you when you get clocked like that. We all been there.

Elektra: You have helped me live my dreams.
Dick: So then why would you want to change what we have? Do you understand how weird this is? Now, when I met you, you were dancing for chasers for dollars in that cum-stained shithole that I took you out of. And I gave you a life -- look at me. And I gave you a life, a real life, and now you repay me this way?
Elektra: I'm 40-years-old, Dick, and I see things as they are, too. You think I'm not aware that you'll trade me in for some young knock-off one day. That is why I must do this. For me. For my future.
Dick: Well, if that future involves this procedure, it obviously doesn't include me.
