• Prof. Robert Crawford : [to Jamal]  Perhaps your skills do reach farther than basketball.

  Jamal : "Further"

  Prof. Robert Crawford : What?

  Claire Spence : [whispered to Jamal]  Don't...

  Jamal : [to Crawford]  You said that my skills reached "farther" than basketball. "Farther" relates to distance, "further" is a definition of degree. You should have said "further".

  Prof. Robert Crawford : Are you challenging me, Mr. Wallace?

  Jamal : Not any more than you challenged Coleridge.

• Jamal : [about leaving the Bronx]  What's hard is knowing that you're safe there. 'Cause people you need to worry about, they know you got nothin' to give 'em.

  Claire : So it's a good thing you're here?

  Jamal : Yeah, but these people don't think I got anything to give 'em either.
