Tommy DeVito : No more shines, Billy.
Billy Batts : What?
Tommy DeVito : I said, no more shines. Maybe you didn't hear about it, you've been away a long time. They didn't go up there and tell you. I don't shine shoes anymore.
Billy Batts : Relax, will ya? Ya flip right out, what's got into you? I'm breaking your balls a little bit, that's all. I'm only kidding with ya...
Tommy DeVito : Sometimes you don't sound like you're kidding, you know, there's a lotta people around...
Billy Batts : I'm only kidding with you, we're having a party, I just came home and I haven't seen you in a long time and I'm breaking your balls, and you're getting fucking fresh. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you.
Tommy DeVito : I'm sorry too. It's okay. No problem.
Billy Batts : Okay, salud.
Billy Batts : [takes a drink] Now go home and get your fuckin' shinebox.
Tommy DeVito : Mother fuckin' mutt! You, you fucking piece of shit!
Billy Batts : [taunting] Yeah, yeah, yeah, come on, come on, come on!

Billy Batts : Hey Jimmy! What's right is right. You understand what I'm talking about?
Jimmy Conway : It's all right. It's all right.
Billy Batts : No. The kid's over here. We're hugging and kissing over here. And two minutes later, he's acting like a fucking jerk.
Jimmy Conway : No, no, no, no, no. You insulted him a little bit. You got a little bit out of order yourself.
Billy Batts : No I didn't insult him. I didn't insult him.
Jimmy Conway : I'm sorry. You insulted him a little bit.
Billy Batts : No, I didn't insult nobody. Give us a drink. Give us a drink.
