Where the heart is

Well that makes sense, all the pricks move to California. They should call it Prickafornia.

Sister Husband: Well, a little weight on a woman is no harm.

Novalee Nation: I lied. It wasn't true, I-I love you. It's just I lied because I thought you deserved something better.
Forney Hull: Something better than you? Novalee, there isn't anything better than you.

Novalee Nation: You tell them that our lives can change with every breath we take... and tell 'em to hold on like hell to what they've got: each other, and a mother who would die for them and almost did... You tell them we've all got meanness in us, but we've got goodness too. And the only thing worth living for is the good. And that's why we've got to make sure we pass it on.

Thelma 'Sister' Husband: Dear Lord, we ask that you bless this food to the nourishment of our bodies. And we ask forgiveness, Lord, for the fornication that Mr. Sprock and me committed this morning on this very table.

You never know, maybe I can get knocked up again on the way home.

Forney: Why would a man on a Harley steal someone's pillows?

Sister: We're alcoholics. We're generally satisfied just to hurt ourselves.

Novalee Nation: I ain't never lived in a house that didn't have wheels on it.

Novalee Nation: At the end of each letter he writes, "Please tell your mother I extend my best wishes."

Lexie Coop: Brownie! Brownie! Do not lasso your sister!

Willy Jack Pickens: Why does anyone lie? Cuz we're scared? Or crazy? Or jut mean?... There's a million reasons why a person lies... But sometimes, you tell a lie so big... that it changes your whole life... Lie's so big... it makes you think..

Lexie Coop: This old gypsy woman once told me that if you jump backwards nine times before the sun come up you won't be pregnant. Well, I jumped so far I had to take a bus back and then I had twins.

Lexie Coop: Honey, I know that your mother walked out on you and what that butthole Willie Jack did. But that is what makes them trash, not you.

Thelma 'Sister' Husband: Home is where your history begins. Home is where they catch you when you fall.

Americus: Forney, if you feed a cow chocolate, will you get chocolate milk?
Forney: Yeah, and if you spin a cow around real fast, you'll get whipped cream.
