Cousin Bo: Some people fear the Lord. I fear women.
Kitty Kane: What really happened between you and Roe?
Cousin Bo: Roe… was my first love. I traced her name in cow shit. She was my first, my last, my everything.
Kitty Kane: Was it um… true? I mean that, you had…?
Cousin Bo: What?
Kitty Kane: Um… trouble?
Cousin Bo: Only with Roe. With other chicks, I’m Barry White. I go to the meat market.

That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind

"Cherry ripe, ripe, ripe, I cry"

Cherry ripe, ripe, ripe, I cry
Full and fair ones; come and buy;
If so be, you ask me where
They do grow? I answer there,
Where my Julia’s lips do smile;
There’s the land, or cherry-isle.

- Robert Herrick
