List of voters for the quote

Maggie: Why can't you lose your good looks, Brick? Most drinkin' men lose theirs. Why can't you? I think you've even gotten better-lookin' since you went on the bottle. You were such a wonderful lover... You were so excitin' to be in love with. Mostly, I guess, 'cause you were... If I thought you'd never never make love to me again... why, I'd find me the longest, sharpest knife I could and I'd stick it straight into my heart. I'd do that. Oh, Brick, how long does this have to go on? This punishment? Haven't I served my term? Can't I apply for a pardon? Brick: Lately, that finishin' school voice of yours sounds like you was runnin' upstairs to tell somebody the house is on fire. Maggie: Is it any wonder? You know what I feel like? I feel all the time like a cat on a hot tin roof. Brick: Then jump off the roof, Maggie, jump off it. Now cats jump off roofs and they land uninjured. Do it. Jump. Maggie: Jump where? Into what? Brick: Take a lover. Maggie: I don't deserve that! I can't see any man but you. With my eyes closed, I just see you. Why can't you get ugly, Brick? Why can't you please get fat or ugly or somethin' so I can stand it? Brick: You'll make out fine. Your kind always does. Maggie: Oh, I'm more determined than you think. I'll win all right. Brick: Win what? What is, uh, the victory of a cat on a hot tin roof? Maggie: Just stayin' on it, I guess. As long as she can.
