I remember someone posting a quote from that movie earlier this week. I haven't seen it yet (although I will), but I have an English paper due Thursday about Capitalism and Anti-Capitalism and I would like to use that quote at the end of my paper. I believe it went something like this:

"Those who say that money is the root of all evil don't have any. Look at the grin on my face... I'm a fuckin' millionaire!"

Which character in the movie said this? I know it's dangerous using a quote from a movie that I haven't seen (i.e. for all I know the guy probably got shot or something right after saying this), so is there any reason why I SHOULDN'T use it?

Thanks... whoa, I've written 8pp. already and only need 5. Hate reading but love writing...

Well first off you got the line wrong.

"Anyone who tells you money is the root of all evil, doesn't have any. They say money can't buy happiness? Look at the smile on my face. Ear to fucking ear baby!"

The line is said by Ben Affleck who plays a character named Joe Young.

Awesome movie by the way.

I'm not sure about all the cable systems but this is on Starz this weekend on the free weekend showcase. Just got the little notice with the Cox cable bill. A great flick...

I remember that part where Ribinsi was sort of psychologically paralysed when he couldn't get his fathers approval. I could relate.

I thought it was a good movie; Vin diesel was great in it...just about shit a brick when they made a comment about not selling to women. Its true....can't put that crap over on women..they ask too many questions.
My mom busted the balls of her analyst so much that she decided to become one herself! LOL...
