Jake: Answer the question.
Melanie: No.
Jake: No, you won't answer or no you won't marry me?
Melanie: Jake Perry, I'm ten years old, I got too much to live for.

Melanie: Why would you wanna marry me anyhow?
Jake: So I can kiss you anytime I want.

Andrew: Melanie Carmichael, will you marry me?
Melanie: Are you sure?

Jake: How can I help you?
Melanie: Well, for starters, you can get your stubborn ass down here and give me a divorce.

Jake: You're shittin' me?
Melanie: You know I never actually understood that expression, but no, I am not "SHITTING" you.

Melanie: Jake! You dumb, stubborn, redneck hick! The only reason you won't sign these papers is cause I want you too!
Jake: Wrong! The only reason I ain't signin' is cause you've turned into some hoity-toity yankee bitch and I'd like nothin' better right now than to piss you off!

Wade: You know what? I don't have a single childhood memory that doesn't have you two in it, and that includes the night I lit my ass on fire. You remember that, huh?

Jake: Honey, just cause I talk slow doesn't mean I'm stupid.

Melanie: Look at you, you have a baby!...In a bar!

Bobby Ray: You can take the girl out of the honky tonk, but you can't take the honky tonk out of the girl!

Melanie: Can he swim?
Jake: Doesn't look like it.

Jake: The girl I knew use to be fearless.
Melanie: The girl you knew didn't have a life.

Fredrick: Do we know... Mo?

Stella: For somebody who's been holding onto something so hard, you're pretty quick to let it go.
Jake: You know, I can't control her, anymore than I can control the weather.

Earl: *after Melanie finds out that she didn't sign the papers* You can't ride two horses with one ass sugarbee.

Melanie: The truth is I gave my heart away a long time ago, my whole heart, and I never really got it back.

Kate: Oh go back to your double-wide and fry something!

Earl: Praise the lord, the south has risen again.

Jake: Where's your husband?
Melanie: I'm looking at him.

Melanie: Apparently you and I are still hitched.

Melanie: Why didn't you tell me you came to New York.
Jake: I needed to make something of myself.
Melanie: About done?

Melanie: You're the first boy I ever kissed Jake, I want you to be the last.

Jake: What do you want to marry me for anyhow?
Melanie: So I can kiss you anytime I want.

Wade: What the hell are you two trying to do? Get yourselves killed?
Melanie: What seems to be the trouble officer?
Wade: I'm here to bring you in young lady.
Jake: What did she do this time?
Wade: Well, from what I hear it. She ran out on a perfectly good cake.

Bobby Ray: *about the cuffs* You might want to save those for the honeymoon.
