- Woj: Some things I won't do
  Edwin: I respect that
  Woj: I like, well you know, like advance warning for any ... hands-on stuff.
  Edwin: Right. Like a kiss or something.
  Woj: Right. Yeah.
  Edwin: How much advance warning?
  Woj: A week?
  Edwin: You know, a week's a long time in politics.
  Woj: An hour?
  Edwin: Twenty minutes?
  Woj: Thirty seconds?

- Edwin: Look. You and me.
  Woj: Sort of like a car crash waiting to happen, right?
  Edwin: ...Right.
  Woj: Right.
  Edwin: Well, let's let it happen.
  Woj: Not ... stop it before it does?
  Edwin: No.
  Woj: Not ... strangle it in its cradle? If you can strangle a car crash in its cradle?

- Paul: (to Dan and Rory) Stiff upper lip. Parting is such sweet sorrow, and all that. At least I'll be able to get into the bathroom now. We all have to do it. We grow up, we move away from home. We leave our parents behind while they, you know ... die.
  EDIT SHARE
- (Dan and Rory are packing clothes)
  Paul: Hold on, those are my pants!
  Rory: These are categorically not your pants.
  Paul: I think I know my own pants when I see them.
  Rory: I think I wouldn't be seen dead wearing your pants.
  Paul: Oh, well it's important what pants you get seen dead in. You know, you could get hit by a bus. Don't want to embarrass the nurse with an unseemly pant.
  EDIT SHARE
- Paul:(reading the back of a book on hypnotism) "A good hypnotic subject is open to the power of the mind and receptive to new experiences."
  Dan: So you'd be crap, then.
  Paul: What do you mean? I'm receptive to new experiences.
  Estelle: No you're not! You're the sort of neurotic Englishman who represses everything then runs amuck with an axe, murdering everybody.
  Paul: Why is it "run amuck"? What is it with "amuck"? Can you walk amuck?
