  • Fred Kite: I've got to be off. I can't stay here arguing. I've got a lot to do. Report to the Executive, check up on the pickets.
  • Mrs. Kite: From what I can see, the only time you ever jolly well *do* any work is when you're on strike.
  • Mrs. Kite: [talking about their daughter Cynthia] She just wants a bit of fun.
  • Fred Kite: Yes, and she makes sure she gets it.
  • Fred Kite: It's just that I don't like to see our class behaving like the Gadarene swine.
  • Mrs. Kite: Here, you watch your language, Fred Kite.
  • Mrs. Kite: For goodness' sake! Stop being such a' old misery!

  • Cynthia Kite: Look at Stan in this one. He looks just like Frankie Sinatra. Innit marvelous!
  • Aunt Dolly: Nowadays, manners do seem to have changed, don't they?
  • Mrs. Kite: You're telling me. It's not only manners changed. Sometimes I think the whole world's changed.

  • Mrs. Kite: That's what I say. I was saying to Mr. Kite the other day, I say, it's all very well your saying, 'Change this, change that. Wotcha gonna be left with?'
  • Aunt Dolly: Perhaps I will sit down.
  • Mrs. Kite: Yes, of course. That's the ticket.
  • Aunt Dolly: Family ties count for something. No one's entitled to forget the principles of his upbringing.
  • Mrs. Kite: Quite.
  • Mrs. Kite: Sick to death of you and your works committee. Union this, union that, and your blasted Soviet Union.
