Calvary - The Challenges of Providing Solace in Confession
Father Leary:
Things you hear in confession these days. It's depressing.
Father James:
You have to detach yourself from it. We're here to provide solace. Your personal feelings don't come into it.
Father Leary:
I know that. What do you take me for? It's difficult, though, the mess people make of their lives.
Father James:
What's the problem? Without going into details, obviously.
Father Leary:
Your one with the big black eye on her. Have you seen her?
Father James:
Veronica Brennan, yeah.
Father Leary: [[w:felching|felching]
She's an odd one. The things she comes out with. It's like she's trying to drag you down into the muck. Do you know what ] is?
Father James:
I do know what felching is, yeah.
Father Leary:
I had to look it up.
Father James:
This is you not going into details, is it?

Calvary - Confronting Assumptions About Faith and Violence
Father Leary:
Jesus Christ! What happened to you?
Father James:
Brendan Lynch.
Father Leary:
Brendan Lynch? He is a Buddhist!
Father James:
So what if he is a fucking Buddhist? You think Buddhists don't beat people up? You think Buddhists don't fuck their kids like everyone else?
Father Leary:
You are obviously very upset.
Father James:
Tibetians spit on blind people in the street! They are killing albinos in Africa! You are so fucking naive!
Father Leary:
Please do not curse at me, Father. I think it would be best to continue this conversation in the morning, when you are sober.
Father James:
Why you are a fucking priest at all? You should be a fucking accountant or a fucking insurance man!

Calvary - Integrity and Its Impact on Relationships
Father Leary:
I didn't realise you hated me that much.
Father James:
I don't hate you, at all.
Father Leary:
Then, why?
Father James:
It's just you have no integrity. That's the worst thing I could say about anybody.
