- Wilson: How you doin' then? All right, are you? Now look, squire, you're the guv'nor here, I can see that. I'm in your manor now. So there's no need to get your knickers in a twist. Whatever this bollocks is that's going down between you and that slag Valentine, it's got nothing to do with me. I couldn't care less. Alright, mate? Let me explain. When I was in prison - second time - uh, no, telling a lie, third stretch, yeah, third, third - there was this screw what really had it in for me, and that geezer was top of my list. Two years after I got sprung, I sees him in Holland Park. He's sittin' on a bench feedin' bloody pigeons. There was no-one about, I could've gone up behind him and snapped his fuckin' neck, *wallop!* But I left it. I could've knobbled him, but I didn't. 'Cause what I thought I wanted wasn't what I wanted. What I thought I was thinkin' about was something else. I didn't give a toss. It didn't matter, see? This berk on the bench wasn't worth my time. It meant sod-all in the end, 'cause you gotta make a choice: when to do something, and when to let it go. When it matters, and when it don't. Bide your time. That's what prison teaches you, if nothing else. Bide your time, and everything becomes clear, and you can act accordingly.
- Terry Valentine: Did you ever dream about a place you never really recall being to before? A place that maybe only exists in your imagination? Some place far away, half remembered when you wake up. When you were there, though, you knew the language. You knew your way around. *That* was the sixties.
- [pause]
- Terry Valentine: No. It wasn't that either. It was just '66 and early '67. That's all there was.
- Head DEA Agent: There's one thing I don't understand. The thing I don't understand is every motherfuckin' word you're saying.
- Wilson: Can't be too careful nowadays, y'know? Lot of "tea leaves" about, know what I mean?
- Warehouse Foreman: Excuse me?
- Wilson: Tea leaves... thieves.

- Uncle John: How much?
- Stacy: Five grand.
- Uncle John: Heyy.
- Stacy: Got half in my pocket.
- Uncle John: We makin' trouble for someone?
- Stacy: Yep.
- Uncle John: Which kind?
- Stacy: [pause] ... the forever kind.
- Stacy: Why don't they make shows about people's daily lives you'd be interested in watching? You know, like "Sick Old Man" or "Skinny Little Weakling." "Big Fat Guy." Wouldn't you watch a show called "Big Fat Guy"? I'd watch that fucking show.
- Excited Guy: [speaking to Valentine] That first Christopher Cross album? Wow, that record really changed my life.
- Wilson: They were together how long?
- Ed: Five years, a long time.
- Wilson: There you go. Jenny must have liked him.
- Ed: Jenny would say, "Hey, here's my friend Eddie." He'd shake my hand and everything, but the guy wouldn't even see me, you know what I mean? Jenny told me she met him at a beach, got blinded by his smile. Can you believe that sh*t, man? That son of a b*tch never smiled at me!
