      • Bernard: Well, I was born to win. Manny: Huh, yeah alright. (pulls out coin) Heads or tails? Bernard: Heads. Manny: (flips coin, comes out heads) Yeah alright I'll give you that one. Bernard: Tails. Manny: (flips coin, comes out tails) Alright you've had two kisses from Lady Luck, now she's gonna spin around and knee you ratlers. Bernard: Tails. Manny: (flips coin, comes out tails) Yeah, but, sooner or later... I'll run out of money.

      • Manny: Did you win or lose? Bernard: It's hard to say... Manny: Alright. Have you got more money or less money? Bernard: That's complicated... Manny: You got no money? Bernard: ... Yeah.

      • Bernard: Now! All I need is some kind of system. Manny: There's only one system. Bet. Lose. Borrow. Steal. Lose. Take the drugs. Lose. Prison... Death.

      • Bernard: Is this what you spend your pocket money on? Filthy gambling?! Manny: It's not really gambling Bernard. It's the Grand National. It's a moment when the whole nation comes together. Like the opening of a Richard Curtis movie or a... manhunt for a serial killer.

      • Customer: Hey mister! Do you have anything on armories, weaponry, that kind of thing? Bernard: Military history is on your right. Customer: I don't want your little history guano. I want modern warfare. Infrared. Fallout. Kill zones. Bernard: Military history is on your right. If you need any help, just fire a couple of rounds into the ceiling!

      • Fran: Bernard, please, give me a job, just until the interview. Manny: No he's changed, he's on the GG's now. Fran: Bernard... I bet you... 20 quid, I'm so hopeless I never get another job ever. Bernard: I'll give you a job! You start tomorrow. HA HA HA!

      • Manny: (To Fran) Hah! You're toast! T-O-E-A-R-S-T. Toearst

      • (During the Grand National) Manny: Oh, he fell. Bernard: What happens when they fall? Manny: Well, they give 'em some oats. And then shoot 'em in the head. But yours is still in. Bernard: You put our money on this circus of death? You disgust me!
