Squire 'Red' Will Danaher
- "Red Will" Danaher: I'll count three, and if you're not out of the house by then, I'll loose the dogs on you.
- Sean Thornton: If you say "three," mister, you'll never hear the man count "ten."
- "Red Will" Danaher: Mind you, I'm fresh as a daisy!
- Sean Thornton: You look more like a Black-Eyed Susan to me.
- Michaleen Flynn: [looking thirsty] I don't suppose there's a drop of anything wet in the house?
- "Red Will" Danaher: Help yourself to the buttermilk.
- Michaleen Flynn: Buttermilk!
- [shudders and in sotto voice]
- Michaleen Flynn: The *Borgias* would do better.
- Sean Thornton: [drunk] Woman-of-the-house! I have brought the brother home to supper!
- [Throws hat]
- Mary Kate Danaher: He is kindly welcome.
- "Red Will" Danaher: [also drunk] God bless all in this house...
- Mary Kate Danaher: Wipe your feet!
- "Red Will" Danaher: Thank you mum!
- "Red Will" Danaher: So the I.R.A.'s in this too, huh?
- Hugh Forbes: If it were, Red Will Danaher, not a scorched stone 'o your fine house'd be standin'.
- Michaleen Flynn: A beautiful sentiment!
- "Red Will" Danaher: [after falling in a stream] Have ya had enough?
- Sean Thornton: No!
- "Red Will" Danaher: Well then, give a man a hand.
- "Red Will" Danaher: If you've come for supper, you're late.
- Michaleen Flynn: A gracious invitation, but, thank you, no.
- The Widow Sarah Tillane: So you told him all that, did you?
- "Red Will" Danaher: That I did.
- The Widow Sarah Tillane: Down at the pub I suppose, and in front of all those big ears with pints in their fists and pipes in their mouths.
- "Red Will" Danaher: Father? Little Flynn?
- Father Peter Lonergan: Well, I can't say it's true, and I won't say it's not, but there's been talk.
- Squire 'Red' Will Danaher: Your widow, me sister... She couldve done a lot worse.
- Sean Thornton: True, true.
- Squire 'Red' Will Danaher: Poor woman.
- "Red Will" Danaher: [responding to Sean Thornton's demand for payment] I'll pay ya... never!
- Sean Thornton: That breaks all bargains.
- [hurls Mary Kate towards Danaher]
- Sean Thornton: You can take your sister back. It's your custom, not mine! No fortune, no marriage! We call it quits!
- Mary Kate Danaher: [with shocked look] You'd do this to me? Your own wife! After, after what I...
- Sean Thornton: It's done!
- [crowd exchanges glances, begins to laugh slowly]
- "Red Will" Danaher: [begrudgingly takes money from wallet, throws it at Thornton's feet indignantly] There's your dirty money! Take it! Count it, ya spawn! And look... if ever I see that face of yours,
- [draws back fist]
- "Red Will" Danaher: I'll push this through it!
