Mr. Cooper, what do you say to those people that might be joining the IRA, and what message do you want to give them?

I feel very ill-equipped to do any preaching to them after today.

Bloody Sunday - Consequences of Government Actions on Civil Rights
Ivan Cooper:
I just want to say this to the British Government... You know what you've just done, don't you? You've destroyed the civil rights movement, and you've given the IRA the biggest victory it will ever have. All over this city tonight, young men... boys will be joining the IRA, and you will reap a whirlwind.

Five Minutes of Heaven - Conflicted Feelings About Violence and Redemption
Joe Griffin: [to Vika]
The trouble with me is, I've got all the wrong feelings. But him! Oh, his feelings! They are just right, just perfect! He did it in cold blood, but now look at the man he has become! What is it like to kill a man," they all ask him? "Well, you have to understand..." And off he goes again, telling them all about this and that. But hats off to him, he's cracked it! He knows they all love to shake hands with a killer.

Five Minutes of Heaven - Struggle Between Revenge and Reconciliation
Joe Griffin: [voiceover]
I can do handshakes, Michael! And I can do victim. I can do handshake and victim both at the same time. But I've made a decision on this one. Reconciliation? You have no idea. A handshake? For killing my brother? For me taking the blame? 33 years of that? What do you think I am, a joke? If ever a man deserved a knife run through him, that scum of the earth. Truth and reconciliation? I'm going for revenge.

Five Minutes of Heaven - The Burden of Blame and Guilt
Joe Griffin: [voiceover]
She's been staring at me for 33 years, do you know that? What it's like? Your mother blaming you for 33 years? Three bullets went into his head. You'd know that, though. Did you know another one hit a picture of a cat on the wall? It wasn't me who broke that picture, I never got the blame for that one, and if it wasn't me who broke the picture on the wall, it wasn't me who killed my brother. I didn't kill him like she said I did. It was you. It was you in the car arriving at her house and shooting three bullets into her son's head, making her grieve the way she did, blaming me the way she did. Well, I'm the one in the car now, visiting you. I'm the one in the car now. I'm the one in the car now.

Five Minutes of Heaven - The Burden of Guilt and Recognition
Joe Griffin: [voiceover, about Alistair]
Swanning around the world talking about your feelings. A ticket to paradise. For killing a man! I mean, where would he have been without me? 40 years in the factory in Lurgan making egg cartons like the rest of us. Aye, not him! He can make a living telling the Pope, and the Queen, the Dalai fucking Lama how it feels to kill a man. How it feels, the suffering I have, the burden I carry. Why should you get women in pastel shades and rosy perfumes giving you tea and buns and wine from fucking Chile, just so's you can tell them how it feels to be putting three bullets into my brother's head?

Look, you can't blame me for trying to hide the fact that I had an affair with her. I know that it's not the most honorable thing to cheat on your wife, but that does not make me a murderer!

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - Discussion of Risks and Responsibilities
Balin:
It's just the usual; summary of out-of-pocket expenses, time required, remuneration, funeral arrangements, so forth.
Bilbo: [reads contract]
Funeral arrangements"? Oh...
Thorin: [whispering to Gandalf]
I cannot guarantee his safety.
Gandalf:
Understood.
Thorin:
Nor will I be responsible for his fate.
Gandalf: [hesitates]
Agreed.
Bilbo:
Uh, "Terms: cash on delivery, up to but not exceeding one fourteenth total profit, if any." Seems fair...Uh, "Present Company shall not be liable for injuries inflicted by, or sustained as a consequence thereof, including, but not limited to...la-ce-ra-tions..." "Evisceration"?..."Incineration"?
Bofur:
Oh, aye. He'll melt the flesh off your bones in the blink of an eye.
Balin:
You all right, laddie?
Bilbo: [trying to take it in]
Huh? Yeah, I'm okay. Feeling a bit faint.
Bofur: [not noticing]
Think "furnace with wings.
Bilbo:
Yeah, I...I...I need air.
Bofur:
Flash of light, searing pain, then poof! You're nothing more than a pile of ash.
Bilbo: [faints]
...Nope.
Gandalf: [sarcastically]
Oh, very helpful, Bofur.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - Misunderstanding a Doily and a Dishcloth
Bilbo: [grabbing a doily from Nori]
Excuse me, that is a doily, not a dishcloth.
Bofur:
But it's full of holes!
Bilbo:
It's supposed to look like that, it's crochet.
Bofur: [[w:Croquet|wonderful game; laughs]
Oh, and a ] it is too, if you've got the balls for it.
Bilbo: [annoyed, but quietly]
Bebother and confusticate these dwarves!
Gandalf:
My dear Bilbo, what on earth is the matter?
Bilbo:
What's the matter? I am surrounded by dwarves! What are they doing here?
Gandalf:
Oh, they're quite a merry gathering, once you get used to them.
Bilbo:
I don't want to get used to them! The state of my kitchen! There's mud trod into the carpet! They pillaged the pantry. I'm not even gonna tell you what they've done in the bathroom. They've all but destroyed the plumbing! I don't understand what they're doing in my house.
Ori: [walks up]
Scuse me. I'm sorry to interrupt, but what should I do with my plate?
Fíli:
Here you go, Ori, give it to me.
Bilbo: [mortified; to the other dwarves clashing the cutlery together]
Excuse me! That's my mother's West Farthing pottery, it's over 100 years old! And can you not do that? You'll blunt them!
Bofur:
Oh, did you hear that, lads? He says we'll blunt the knives!
Kíli: [singing]
Blunt the knives, bend the forks!
Fíli: [singing]
Smash the bottles and burn the corks!
Dwarves: [singing]
