- Francis Tierney Sr: I had a glass of scotch, officer.
- Ray Tierney: Just one, huh?
- Francis Tierney Sr: I used that same glass, yeah.
- Jimmy Egan: You breathe a word of this, and I come back, I'll slit your throat, fuck your wife, and kill your kid. Look at me! You tip angel off, and I'll make it really worse!

- Francis Tierney Sr: Now, the men that were killed were under your brother's command. You know this neighborhood up and down, yes?
- Ray Tierney: Yeah. I worked those streets pop. So what?
- Francis Tierney Sr: You want me to spell it out for you, Raymond? Find who killed our guys.
- Ray Tierney: [seeing his father enter his houseboat] Hey.
- Francis Tierney Sr: Hey.
- Ray Tierney: Come on in.
- Francis Tierney Sr: [noticing Ray doing some repair work] What happened? My carpet! What happened to the carpet?
- Ray Tierney: You're supposed to fix the leaks before you put the carpet down, Pop. You know that.
- Francis Tierney Sr: Oh... Boats leak, Raymond. It's the nature of things.
- Francis Tierney Sr: [to Ray] Don't turn your back on me, Raymond! You're my kid; you're my blood! You might aswell be a fuckin' Martian!

- Ray Tierney: How I figure this went down: When our guys go in, the whole thing touches off. You got a lot of firing, very close quarters, and it's that shooter. Whoever he was, he was no amateur.
