Quotes

Carlos: Am I interrupting whatever hetero mating ritual this is?
Latika: If we don't get him into a draw the hallway's going to smell like week old meatloaf.
Millie: Everyone loves a man in uniform.
Carlos: Including other men in uniform.
Latika: You won't find anything here. I've been doing inventory on the clubhouse library and, shocker, a bunch of old white men weren't big on a bunch of pre-Christian lore and myths.
Mars Neto: There is centuries of violence and rage in your blood, John. Become what you were born to be! Bingo.Your scars are holding you back. Your past is holding you back. Let me wipe the slate clean.
Latika: Ironic, isn't it? That a god's immortality be tied to something that appears so... Fragile.
Millie (knocks vase to the ground where it smashes): We do not have time for irony.
Carlos: Hey, Winchester, before you go -- I just want to thank you for what you did back there.

John: You're welcome.
Carlos: If you ever want to talk... You let me know, okay?

John: I will.

Millie: Was Yoko Ono unfairly blamed for the break-up of The Beatles?
Yoko Ono is an artist, singer and peace activist. She met John Lennon of The Beatles in 1966 and they married in 1969. The Beatles broke up in April 1970, for reasons unrelated to Yoko Ono, although many fans who disliked Yoko blamed her for it.

Mary: Maybe save the thanks until after you've survived a night with several Donny Osmond posters.

Carlos: Actually, sounds quite soothing.

Donny Osmond started out singing with his brothers in the early 1960s when he was five. In the early 1970s he had a hugely successful solo career as a pop star and heartthrob, appearing many times on magazines such as Tiger Beat and 16 magazine.
The song "Everybody's Talkin'" by Harry Nilson became famous and won a Grammy award after it was used in the 1969 movie Midnight Cowboy which is about a young Texan who moves to New York to become a sex worker, and his relationship with a small time con man.
