The Hustler isn't what he used to be, but he has the next best thing. A kid who is.
Eddie Felson: Vincent, get in the car, this is embarrassing. You're acting like some girl who got felt up at the drive-in.
Vincent Lauria: I think maybe the money's what's throwing you off here today.
Eddie Felson: I'm not your daddy, I'm not your boyfriend, so don't be playing games with me. I'm your partner.
Eddie Felson: It's even, but it ain't settled. Let's settle it.
Eddie Felson: Money won is twice as sweet as money earned.
Eddie Felson: You gotta have two things to win. You gotta have brains and you gotta have balls. Now, you got too much of one and not enough of the other.
Opening Voiceover: Nine-ball is rotation pool, the balls are pocketed in numbered order. The only ball that means anything, that wins it, is the 9. Now, the player can shoot eight trick shots in a row, blow the 9, and lose. On the other hand, the player can get the 9 in on the break, if the balls spread right, and win. Which is to say, that luck plays a part in nine-ball. But for some players, luck itself is an art.
Eddie Felson: Do you smell that?::Vincent Lauria: What, smoke?::Carmen: No, Money...
Eddie Felson: I can always go back to whiskey, it's been very good to me.
Vincent Lauria: Hey Grady. Up your ass with the spot. Is that OK with you?::Grady Seasons: [laughs] That's fine by me.

I wanna be a Kennedy
I wanna be a big heartbreaker
Live fast and for real
And you can follow it in the papers
I wanna be a Kennedy
I wanna shake hands with heroes
And kiss the girls of centerfolds on the tongue
And die young
I'll be brave tonight
Either live or die
I'll be brave tonight
Standing tall and bright
Such romantic eyes
Got me hypnotized
And if I had my chance I'd never let you go
And if I had my chance I'd never let you go
I wanna be a Kennedy
I wanna be tall and handsome
I'd conquer the world
And you'd see it on television
If I could be a Kennedy
If I could be a real heartbreaker
I'd watch you crash into my arms
We're the stars under the barrel of a gun
We die young
I'll be brave tonight
Standing tall and bright
Such romantic eyes
Got me hypnotized
And if I had my chance I'd never let you go
Lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
Oh have you lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
And now Harry's walked away with Johnny's wife
You've got to pick some people up
You've got to let some people go
But if Lee's name does come up
Oh well I really want to know
Because everybody loves a TV show
Lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
Oh have you lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
And now Harry's walked away with Johnny's wife
You've got to pick some people up
You've got to let some people go
But if Lee's name does come up
Oh well I really want to know
Because everybody loves a TV show
Lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
Oh have you lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
