Hooker (Janet Moran) : Oi. You doing business, do it somewhere else, love. This pavement's got my name on it.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : And what, pray, is your name? Concrete?
Hooker (Janet Moran) : My name is scratch your eyes out, and bite your bleed'n nose off. Which is what I'll do if you don't get off my patch.
Mr. Silky String : She giving you trouble, sir?

Billy Hatchett : [finding that Patrick has taken all of the guns] Fuck. Don't you know what this means? Do-do you know what these guys are like, Paddy?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Don't let this come between us, Billy.
Billy Hatchett : Shut up! Jesus, what the fuck am I gonna do? Fucking Jesus!
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Tell them I was spring cleaning, darling.
Billy Hatchett : Where are they, Paddy? Tell me, where are they?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Now, what is this you mean, my darling?

Billy Hatchett : I'm not fucking joking, Patrick! Where are they?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : I told you to call me Kitten.
Billy Hatchett : Don't fucking know me. You don't know where I've gone. And if they come, if they fucking come, you tell them nothing. I mean nothing.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Whatever you say, darling.
Billy Hatchett : You're way out of your league, Patrick. You don't know what you're dealing with. Don't fucking know.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Oh, I do. I know, all right. I knew you were only joking about the roses... and the sweets, too, probably. But it was nice while it lasted.

Patrick "Kitten" Braden : And the other thing about the Phantom Lady was, Bert, she realized, in the city that never sleeps...
Bertie : What did she realize, Kitten?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : That all the songs she'd listened to, all the love songs, that they were only songs.
Bertie : What's wrong with that?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Nothing, if you don't believe in them. But she did, you see. She believed in enchanted evenings, and she believed that a small cloud passed overhead and cried down on a flower bed, and she even believed there was breakfast to be had...
Bertie : Where?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : On Pluto. The mysterious, icy wastes of Pluto.
-
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : I knew you were only joking about the roses. And the sweeties. But it was nice while it lasted.

Bertie : You know, Kitten, I made a decision a long time ago.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : What decision was that?
Bertie : That I wasn't destined for sentimental side of things. But if I ever did let myself fall for someone, I think it would be a girl like you.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Bertie, please, I have to stop you. There's something you should know.
Bertie : Or maybe what I should say is, it would be a girl not a million miles away from where I'm standing. What's the matter, Princess?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Well, you see, the thing is, Bertie, I'm not a girl.
Bertie : Oh, I knew that, Princess.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : You did?
Bertie : Of course. What I said was, it would be a girl like you.

Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Oh... I do believe I have a small elfin dwelling on Wimbledon Common.

Patrick "Kitten" Braden : [when threatened by two IRA men] Oh, come on then, just do it. I've nothing left to live for in this stupid serious world.
Horse Killane : Ah, fuck him. He's not worth a bullet, the mental nancy boy.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Why can't you be bothered killing nancy boys? You kill everyone else.
Jackie Timlin : I'm fucking warning you. Do you know what you're doing here? Are you on dope?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : I wish that I was, Mr. Killing Man. Why, do you have any?
Jackie Timlin : You're way out of your league, sunshine.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Not that again - "Out of your league., out of your league. Oh, you're in over your head, in over your head." Oh, for heaven's sake. Surely you've one bullet to spare between yous?

Patrick "Kitten" Braden : [voice over] But did true love save Kitten from the hands of the beast, in that worst of all fairy tales? No. What saved Kitten was her precious perfume spray, bought for £2.99 in Roches Stores on Henry Street before she left her beloved Emerald Isle.

1st Biker : When I ride my hog, you think I'm riding the road? No way, man. I'm travelling from the past into the future with a druid at my back.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Druid man or druid woman?
1st Biker : That doesn't matter. What matters is the journey. You know where it goes, baby?

Patrick "Kitten" Braden : John Joe! John Joe, woohoo! John Joe! Not a Womble anymore?
John Joe Kenny : Don't talk to me about fuckin' Wombles. I'm in the Tower of London now. 30 smackers in the paw, boy. No questions asked. They're looking for a Mary Queen of Scots. Would you be up for it?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : They'd chop my head off surely.
-
Charlie : What would it turn out like, Paddy? You know what I mean, don't you?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : It'd be an absolute disaster. Like me.

Charlie : Termination? You mean this is an abortion clinic?
Nurse : Yes, of course it is.
Charlie : Oh. I thought it was a fertility clinic.
[gets up and leaves]
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : [to the nurse] I think she's changed her mind. Thank you.

Father Liam : You have your mother's eyes. Do you know that, Patrick. The colour of the ocean beyond Rosses Point.
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : You took her there?
Father Liam : Many times. Things... could have been so different...
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Ssh. Don't say anything. Because you know the strangest thing? I went looking for her. But I found you.

Building Site Worker : You can throw a fast one. How about it, kitten? What's the chance of a bit tonight?
Patrick "Kitten" Braden : Oh, why, yes, of course, boys. I'll leave the front door open, and you can all troop in and give me a jab... Not up to it, then?
