| Quotes from the Movie | |
|
"When a straight man puts on a dress and gets his sexual kicks, he is a transvestite. When a man is a woman trapped in a man's body, and has a little operation, he is a transsexual. When a gay man has WAY too much fashion sense for one gender, he is a drag queen." -- Noxeema Jackson (WESLEY SNIPES) to Chi Chi Rodriguez (JOHN LEGUIZAMO). "We gotta make moments fabulous. Because no sooner is a moment noticed than it is gone, child. And a life ain't something to be avoided." -- Noxeema Jackson (WESLEY SNIPES) "Ready or not, here comes mama." -- Vida Boheme (PATRICK SWAYZE) |
