Lawrence Paros. The Erotic Tongue (1984): ''Unfortunately, the only question he [the male] has in mind is: Is she easy (since 17th C), loose (since 15th C), fast (18th C), swift (late 19-20th C), speedy (c. 1923), light (14th C), or convenient (19thC)? Does she go all the way(mid-20th C), the whole route (19-20th C), or the limit (c. 1916)? Once we have the answer to that question, we have established what is called a reputation (since 18th C).''
Alabama Whitman''s (Patricia Arquette) voice over introduction in True Romance (1993):''I had to come all-the-way from the highways and byways of Tallahassee, Florida, to Motor City, Detroit to find my true-love . If you gave me a million years to ponder I would never have guessed that true romance and Detroit would ever go together, and to this day the events that followed all seem like a distant dream. But the dream was real, and was to change our lives forever. I kept asking Clarence why our world seemed to be collapsing and everything seemed so shitty? And he''d say: That''s the way it goes, but don''t forget, it goes-the-other-way too. That''s the way romance is. Usually that''s the way it goes but every once in a while it goes-the-other-way too.''
