Samuel L. Jackson – Personality Goes A Long Way lyrics

[Dialogue Written by Quentin Tarantino]

Vincent
Want some bacon?

Jules
Naw, man, I don't eat pork.

Vincent
Are you Jewish?

Jules
I ain't Jewish, I just don't dig on swine, that's all.

Vincent
Why not?

Jules
Pigs are filthy animals. I don't eat filthy animals.

Vincent
Yeah, but bacon tastes good. Pork chops taste good.

Jules
Hey, a sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie. But I'll never know 'cause I
Wouldn't eat the filthy motherfuckers. Pigs sleep and root in shit. That's
A filthy animal. I ain't need nothin' that ain't got sense enough to
Disregard it's own feces.

Vincent
How about a dog? Dog eats it's own feces.

Jules
I don't eat dog either.

Vincent
Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal?

Jules
I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy, but they're definitely dirty.
But a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Vincent
So by that rationale, if a pig had a better personality, he would cease to
Be a filthy animal? Is that true?

Jules
Well, we'd have to be talkin' 'bout one charmin' motherfuckin' pig. I mean
He'd have to be ten times more charming that that [...] you know what
I'm sayin'?
