Quotes:

Darcy: Max, please, what is the matter with you lately? I was kidding.::Max Fielder: Look at my face. I can't go to dinner like this. Look.::Darcy: Your face looks fine.::Max Fielder: I'm not going. I'm staying up here.::Darcy: Max. Max, you promised me that you would try to relax and be close to me this weekend.::Max Fielder: You were only kidding?

[after snorting up a bunch of powder that was supposed to banish the 'demons' from his system]::Max Fielder: YES!::[laughs]::Max Fielder: I LIKE IT!

Max Fielder: I'm starting to see things move in thin air. Like this morning, I think I caused Darcy's coffee cup to slide across the table and crash. And then everything around was shaking and quaking...::Brian Stills: You trashed the place 'cause you're mad at this Daisy chick, right?::Max Fielder: No, no, Brian, I did it but I didn't touch anything.::Brian Stills: Look, we all think we got some monster inside us that's ready to explode any minute. You break things. I masturbate, so what? Same difference.

Brian Stills: Are you still seeing things move?::Max Fielder: I'm making things move.::Brian Stills: Max, could you sit down? I have a crick in my neck.

Dorita: According to these chicken guts, there's going to be an awfully big ruckus here this weekend.

Lorraine: Are you gonna be okay?::Max Fielder: Oh, yeah, I think things will be okay.::Lorraine: Good.::Mark Winslow: Well, not necessarily.

Lorraine: Poor guy. He's a prince who thinks he's a frog.

Mark Winslow: I'm not a freak, I'm a goddamn good-looking man.

Dorita: Now, we can do this easy, or we can do it rough. These is knuckles you is looking at.::Max Fielder: [in demonic voice] Your mama.
