James Cagney as Matt Dow

• (James Cagney) "Why don't you stop feeling sorry for yourself? You think you're the only one in the world ever got a raw deal -- There's a lot of people in this world who've had a tougher time than you or me. It comes with the ticket. Nobody guarantees you a free ride. The only difference is, most people don't run for cover. They keep right on going, picking up the pieces the best way they can. But you never hear of them. It's the ones who can't take it, like you; the ones looking for a free ride; who cause all the trouble, everywhere."
