I'm fine, just watch the excitement!

Siobhan: Sorry?
Jack Mulligan: You heard me, have you ever slept with a black guy?
Siobhan: What does that have to do with Jamal? Or anyth...
Jack Mulligan: Just answer the fucking question.
Siobhan: We're in a situation where you could lose everything. You've got the IGs and the feds breathing down your neck, you got Jamal Manning climbing in the polls and all you're concerned about is if your dick is bigger than his?
Jack Mulligan: Well what are we fighting for? This? I mean do you know how many shootings happened in this city last weekend alone? Thirty four! These people are killing each other! This is not where I want to raise my children. What are we fighting for, exactly! I feel suffocated. I'm a Mulligan, I'm my mother's son, God rest her soul. The shit she had to put up with from my father!
Siobhan: I'm putting up with it too, Jack. That's what adults do.
Jack Mulligan: I never wanted to be in this fucking business. That what this is. It's a fucking business! Christ, I just wanna be free of this shit. Can't take it anymore.
Siobhan: Wake the fuck up, Jack. You are not going to pussy out now. What are you going to do, work in a bank? Take the train downtown, punch a clock? This is your life. This is our life, it's what we do. Everyone has a fucking sob story, most of them better than yours, so if the idea is to be mayor one day, you better man the fuck up!
Jack Mulligan: Jesus... Dollar signs of empty promises. Everyone who thinks different are fooling themselves. That's the God's honest truth.

Harry Rawlings: I couldn't save him, Ronnie! I couldn't save us! I had to save me! Me!
Veronica: You're a fucking coward!
