• Big Joe : Hold your horses. What are you going to use for money?

  Old Man Grimes : Well, I was of the impression my credit was good around here.

  Big Joe : Do me a favor and tie the bull outside.

• Mrs. Mulcahey : Where do you go around talking love to every woman in the neighborhood?

  Old Man Grimes : Well, what would you have me talk about? The weather?

  Biff Grimes : What happened this time?

  Old Man Grimes : Oh, Biff, it's me teeth - and when a man's in misery...

  Biff Grimes : Why can't you get a new alibi?
