"Speakeasy employee: All the money for frills and twists and none at all for food or neccessities. Sometimes I think I am dealing with a different species."

"Finn McGovern: [to John Rooney] You rule this town as God rules the Earth."

"Alexander Rance: Finally, Top marks for speed. No marks for cookery."

"Alexander Rance: This is Mr. Rance in the bridal suite and before you proffer your phony congratulations there is no Mrs. Rance residing with me and I'm all the better for it. Now, listen carefully because I am in no mood. I'm going to say this only once. I would like a boiled egg and I want it runny."

"I'm something of a rarity."

"[Photographing Micheal as he lays dying] Smile."

"I shoot the dead. Dead bodies, that is. I don't kill them."

"(last words) I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry... I'm sorry."

"This is the life we chose, the life we lead. And there is only one guarantee: none of us will see Heaven."

"[to Michael, right before dying] I'm glad it's you."

"[beating Connor] I curse... the fucking... day... you were born. I curse it!"

"Let's drink to Danny's honor. Let's wake him to God and hope he gets to Heaven... at least an hour before the devil finds out he's dead."

"You would like to apologize? Try again."

"[After losing a dice game to Michael Jr., he hands over a silver coin] A man of honor always pays his debts... and keeps his word."

"What men do after work is what made us rich. No need to screw them at work as well."

"Natural law. Sons are put on this earth to trouble their fathers."

"I saw then that my father's only fear was that his son would follow the same road. And that was the last time I ever held a gun. People always thought I grew up on a farm. And I guess, in a way, I did. But I lived a lifetime before that, in those six weeks on the road in the winter of 1931. When people ask me if Michael Sullivan was a good man, or if there was just no good in him at all, I always give the same answer. I just tell them... he was my father."

"Finally... A film about the downwardly mobile."

"Man at Bar: You go to a party, you meet a group of people, you like them and you think "These people are going to be my friends for the rest of my life". Then you never see them again. I wonder where they go. We simply fail without being doomed. I'm not destitute. I've got a good job that pays decently. It's just that it's all so mediocre, so unimpressive. The acid test is whether you take any pleasure in responding to the question "What do you do?". I can't bear it. You start out expecting something much more, and some of your contemporaries achieve it. You start reading about them in the papers or seeing them on TV. That's the danger of midtown Manhattan - running across far more successful contemporaries. I try to avoid them whenever I can. But when I can't, they're always friendly. But inevitably they ask what am I doing - or think it."

"[to Serena Slocum] I haven't been giving you the silent treatment. I just haven't been talking to you."

"Playing strip poker with an exhibitionist somehow takes the challenge away."

"The most important thing to realize about parents is that there is absolutely nothing you can do about them."

"It's a tiny bit arrogant of people to go around worrying about those less fortunate."

"Rick Von Slonecker is tall, rich, good-looking, stupid, dishonest, conceited, a bully, liar, drunk and thief, an egomaniac, and probably psychotic. In short, highly attractive to women."

"I'm not sure if you realize this, but these girls are at a very vulnerable point in their lives. All of this is much more emotional and difficult for them than it is for us. They're on display. They have to call the guys up and invite them as escorts. And preppy girls mature socially much later than others do."

"But, unlike you, I've always assumed I'd be a failure anyway. That's why I plan to marry an extremely rich woman."

"[to Trevor], so I'm just gonna tell you the truth. [A beat.] I have a problem. [A beat.] I have a really bad problem. I gotta stop. [A beat.]"
