Vinnie Terranova : [in the confessional] Bless me, father, for I have sinned.
Father Peter Terranova : [on the other side of the screen] No kidding. Well then, I guess you haven't changed much, have you, Vinne?
Vinnie Terranova : Listen, Pete, I'm not gonna confess to you 'cause the last time I did, you told Mom and I had to wash the kitchen floor for a month.
Father Peter Terranova : You were six. You stole my cowboy boots.
Vinnie Terranova : Says you!

Vinnie Terranova : Pete, you know, all the people who come in here and pray, they all got problems... seventy percent of 'em can't get a bank loan; a guy can't make the payments on his house, he's got a wife and kid, he doesn't want 'em to be evicted so he goes on the street for the money. He misses a couple of payments, the next thing he knows somebody's ringing his doorbell with a steel pipe! Now you got his widow *and* his kid and *they're* praying for help!
Father Peter Terranova : And the *Lord* will provide it!
Vinnie Terranova : Okay, all right, but what if what the Lord provides is people like me? People to go out and get these brazholes? What if you and I are just on different ends of the same handoff?
Father Peter Terranova : [stares at him for a moment, then] How did we turn out so different... and so much alike?

Father Peter Terranova : [referring to their mother] You could tell her you're working for the government. What would it hurt?
Vinnie Terranova : Pete, I wasn't even supposed to tell you, but I figured a guy could tell his priest anything!

Vinnie Terranova : Look, if I told Mom, she'd tell Uncle Pete and Aunt Celeste; they'd let it slip to Norwood, he'd tell that dingbat wife of his, and *she'd* tell half the Metropolitan Life Building!
Father Peter Terranova : She got sacked. She's home eating bon-bons and doing crosswords and hacking poor Norwood to pieces.
Vinnie Terranova : [shakes his head] Still, Mom couldn't keep it to herself. I shamed her, she'd have to tell somebody, and then you count to ten I'd be the captain of a fifty-gallon oil drum at the bottom of the river.
