  Eilis : Just... Well, I wash it, Mrs. Keogh, with soap.

  Mrs. Keogh : Well, which brand did he use, Miss McAdam? Does the Bible tell you that?

  Diana : Our Lord is a man anyway. He didn't care about greasy skin.

  Mrs. Keogh : Ladies, no more talk about our Lord's complexion at dinner, please.

• Miss McAdam : One of the things that ruins Christmas in America is the turkey. Oh, it tastes of sawdust.

  Mrs. Keogh : So that's one cheese sandwich for Miss McAdam and extra turkey for everyone else!
