Quotes

Irene O'Dare : Granny - am I an O'Dare?
Granny O'Dare : Sure you are, what of it?
Irene O'Dare : Haven't you always told me the O'Dares have second sight?
Michael : [playing a concertina] Second sight - that's all hooey.
Granny O'Dare : You think about what you understand, Michael O'Dare! Hooey, is it? Let me tell you something. Brian O'Malley's wife - she was born an O'Dare. The day her husband died, saw his body floating in the air without a head...
[waves her arm]
Michael : How did she know it was her husband if he didn't have a head?
Granny O'Dare : Aw, you -
[shoves his head, causing the concertina to let out a sharp note]

Granny O'Dare : [while Irene is showing Granny a ball gown that Mr. Smith gave her] Well, now, just as a matter of curiosity, what would a dress like that be costing?
Irene O'Dare : Oh, $450.
Granny O'Dare : Glory be.
[puts her hand to her face]
Michael : [annoyed] 450 bucks? I could see over 200 ball games in box seats for that, and a girl puts it on her back in a *dress.*
