Tina Turner
Of course, I remember the words, Ike, I wrote it!
I'm ready. I'm ready and I know what I want.
Ike, Sr.
Eat the cake, Anna Mae.
Now, you listen to me. I MADE you. You were nothing before you met me, and you'll be nothing without me.

Jackie: [to Anna Mae] Lorraine was Ike's last gig. He's always booking ahead. Now, you watch yourself.
Dialogue
Ike, Sr.: Hey, Anna Mae. Where you going? I need to get some sleep!
Tina: Go straight to hell, Ike!
Ike, Sr.: What's wrong with you?
Tina: Don't! Leave me!
Ike, Sr.: Talk to me like me? Huh? What did you say?
Tina: Don't start with me! I ain't in the mood today, alright?
Grandma Georgiana: Your mama had to go away for a while.
Young Anna Mae: When is she coming back to get me?
Grandma Georgiana: She ain't, honey. She just ain't.
Zelma: Now, Anne Mae. I know I wasn't around. But believe me, you were too young to know what was going on with your daddy and me.
Tina: Did Alline understand? She ain't that much older than me.
Zelma: Now, don't think you're going to come live in my house and make me feel bad.
Judge: I want you to be very sure about this. This means you're going to walk out of here with absolutely nothing.
Tina: Except my name. I'll give up all that other stuff, but only if I get to keep my name. I've worked too hard for it, your honor.
Ike, Sr.: The name is mine. The name got my daddy's blood on it. If she want to go, she can go wherever she want to go, but the name stays home!
Ike, Sr.: You can't get from me! I'm in here! You act like you didn't know me.
Tina: Yeah, I know you, Ike. I know you are the real one, alright?
