Some Velvet Morning Quotes
Velvet: What are you so angry about, Fred? So bitter. I haven't done anything.
Fred: So what? Shit happens to people who haven't done anything all the time. What does it matter? It just depends on how we deal with it, whatever lands at our feet.
Velvet: Is that right?
Fred: Yeah, that is right. That's the truth. The lesson is in the struggle. That's what makes us shine, or roll over and die like little bitches in the dirt with our guts exposed and flies shitting in our open mouths.

Movie: Some Velvet Morning
Velvet: [to a very judgmental Fred, after she tells him he's only one of several older men she's had affairs with]... You use what you have, Fred, and that's what I did. Chris is good with computers, and so he gets paid for that; and you're an attorney, and that's your gift, ya know. And I have tits, and I'm not sorry that I let men use me once in a while. You can try and make me feel guilty, and tell me what I did was a bad thing, but it wasn't. It wasn't for me. And you may not like it or understand it, but I did what I had to do at the time. I still do from time to time.
