"You know what a future a cop has, Murph? None. Punch a clock for 30 years... retirement... pension... nothin' to do. Drunk at noon, bullet in the brain by evening. Well, not for this kid! The police department's got it all: guns, ammo, drugs, cash... it's a one-stop shopping center. If you've got the balls and the brains, there's not a fucking thing anyone can do about it!"

""Close" is a lingerie shop without a front window."

"You have the right to remain unconscious. Anything you say ain't gonna be much."

"We can't shoot a dog. People? Okay, but not dogs."

"I'm too old for this shit."

"It's not just a house... it's a home!"

"They want to extend the airport... But the Kerrigans won't belt up."

"It's every Australian family's dream. A quarter acre block. A Pool Room. A barbie. And an airport over the back fence."

"Ordinary family. Extraordinary story."

"Steve Kerrigan: Dad, there's a guy selling seven eskies..."

"Darryl Kerrigan: fuck off! Steve Kerrigan: You heard my dad, now fuck off!"

"Steve Kerrigan: Dad, you haven't let anyone down. I don't know what the opposite of lettin' someone down is... but you done the opposite."

"Farouk: I say you have friend, I have friend. My friend go to your house, put bomb under your car and blow you to fucking sky!"

"Farouk: He say plane fly overhead, drop value. I no care. In Beirut, plane fly over head, drop bomb. I like these planes better."

"Dennis: In summing up it's the constitution, it's Mabo, it's justice, it's law, it's the Vibe and, no that's it, it's the vibe. I rest my case."

"[To opposing court counsel in the high court hearing] What are you calling an eyesore? It's a home, ya dickhead!!"

"It's not a house, it's a home."

"Dad reckons fishing is 10% brains and 95% muscle, the rest is just good luck."

"If there's one thing dad loved more than serenity, it's a two-stroke motor at full throttle!"

"Dad? I dug another hole. It's filling with water."

"Pity my oldest brother couldn't be there. His name's Wayne. He's in jail. Eight years for armed robbery. Many people would call him the black sheep of the family, but not Mum and Dad. He got caught up with the wrong crowd - he didn't mean to rob the petrol station! Now he's sorry."

"Our crescent was going to be the heart of a major housing development, but it never got up. They reckon the planes put people off, them and the power lines. Not Dad. He reckons power lines are a reminder of man's ability to generate electricity. He's always saying great things like that."

"As the real estate agent said, "Location, location, location", and we're right next door to the airport. It will be very convenient if we ever have to fly one day."
