Quotes1

  • [first lines]
  • Frank Gallagher: Nobody's saying our neighborhood is the Garden of Eden. Hell, some people say God avoids this place altogether. But it's been a good home to us, to me and my kids, who I'm proud of, 'cause every single one of them reminds me a little bit of me. Fiona, my rock, huge help. Has all the best qualities of her mother, except she's not a raging psycho bitch.
  • Fiona Gallagher: [handing her kids a Kleenex] Blow.
  • Frank Gallagher: Lip, smart as a whip. Straight As and the honor roll - boy's definitely going somewhere.
  • Cop: [chasing Lip] You, come back! Stop!
  • Frank Gallagher: Ian, industrious, conscientious, ambitious, incredible work ethic. Don't have a clue where he got that from. Wants to be a paratrooper. Knows how to disembowel an enemy with a roll of dimes and an old gym sock.
  • Frank Gallagher: Carl. Uh, I don't really know that much about Carl. Oh! Loves animals. Always dragging home some poor stray he found, taking them up to his room.
  • Carl Gallagher: [holding a cat and a blowtorch]
  • Frank Gallagher: Ah, Debbie. Sent by God. Total angel. Raises money for UNICEF year-round, some of which she actually turns in.
  • Frank Gallagher: Liam, going to be a star. I'm no biologist, but he looks a little bit like my first sponsor. He and the ex were close.
  • Frank Gallagher: Kev and Veronica, fantastic neighbors. There's nothing they won't do for each other. Or *to* each other. That didn't hurt half as much as I thought it would. I never realized how little sex I was having till V and Kev moved next door.
  • Frank Gallagher: And me, Frank Gallagher, father, teacher, mentor, captain of our little ship. We may not have much, but all of us, to a man, knows the most important thing in this life. We know how to fucking party!
  • [police cars rush onto the property]
  • Frank Gallagher: No!
