Quotes From “Little Tots Learning Center,” A Film By Martin Scorsese
“As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a cowboy. Or a superhero.”
(Goodfellas, 1990)
“In daycare, everybody’s gotta watch everybody else. Since the children are looking to run loose in the place, the teaching assistants are watching the children. The lead teachers are watching the teaching assistants. The supervisors are watching the lead teachers. The assistant director is watching the supervisor. The director is watching the assistant director. And the security cameras are watching everyone outside to make sure no perverts get in.”
(Casino, 1995)
“To us, those goody-goody students who worked on their shitty fine-motor skills for stupid star stickers and took the hobby horse to story time every day and worried about their counting were dead. I mean, they were suckers. They had no balls. If we wanted some toy or juice box, we just took it. If anyone complained twice, they got their Magna-Tile tower knocked down so fast, believe me, they never complained again.”
(Goodfellas, 1990)
“Each afternoon when I return the Cozy Coupe to the play yard, I have to clean the jam off the backseat. Some days, I clean off the boogies.”
