Quotes 

• Shadow Johnson : Let me tell you a story, about a place I know. It's only an alley, where most folks wouldn't go.

  [singing] 

  Shadow Johnson : If you always done right, And you never done wrong, If you ain't never sinned, Then you just don't belong in, Glory Alley, Glory Alley, Hear that trumpet moan, In Glory Alley, It's a street of despair, Where the blues feel the air, When you're all alone, In Glory Alley, Faded dreamers, Jaded schemers, They're the folks you know, In Glory Alley...

• Shadow Johnson : It's not my business, Judge, but, why can't you be big about Mr. Socks? Life's too short to be small.
