- Gypo Nolan: And now the British think I'm with the Irish, and the Irish think I'm with the British. The long and short of it is I'm walkin' around without a dog to lick my trousers!
- Terry: [realizing Gypo's stuck him with the bill as an angry bouncer glowers at him] Oh dear, oh dear. I have a queer feelin' there's going to be a strange face in heaven in the mornin'.
- Katie Madden: Ah, Gypo, what's the use? I'm hungry, and I can't pay my room rent. Have you the price of a flop on you?
- Gypo Nolan: No.
- Katie Madden: What's the use? Ah. don't look at me like that, Gypo! You're all I got! You're the only one. You know that. But what chance do we have to escape? Money! Some people have all the luck!
- [Indicating the ad in the travel agency window]
- Katie Madden: Look at that thing handing us the ha-ha! Ten pounds to America! Twenty pounds and the world is ours?
- Gypo Nolan: What are you saying that for?
- Katie Madden: Gypo, where did you get that money? Look at it, and not an hour ago you hadn't a penny to warm your pocket. Did someone die and leave you a pot of gold?
- Gypo Nolan: Why are you sayin' that for?
- Katie Madden: Well, did you rob a church or what?
- Gypo Nolan: [loudly at Frankie's wake] I'm sorry for your trouble, Mrs. McPhillip!
- Bartly Mulholland: What are you shoutin' for? Don't you know there's a wake goin' on?
