- Chas Chandler: Wow, what does this do?
- [Pulling a sword from the book shelves]
- John Constantine: Put that down, that can't help us.
- Chas Chandler: That's not what I asked. I asked what it does, but your too self absorbed to hear me like always. And Renee, she's gone. Im afraid I wasn't enough to keep her around. Can't bring myself to tell you about it though not that you'd hear me...
- John Constantine: [Cutting Chas off] This is the Sword of Knight. Compels the holder to speak the truth...
- Chas Chandler: O.
- John Constantine: There anything you... want to talk about or...
- Chas Chandler: No, no.
- John Constantine: I'm cursed when it comes to kids. Hmm. Probably on the account that I was such a wretched little bastard myself.
- Manny: Wow. You really should get therapy for that.
- John Constantine: Piss off. You made it perfectly clear you're not allowed to help me.
- Manny: I said the exact opposite. What, did the shock therapy destroy your hearing?
- John Constantine: All right, then. Go and warn Mommy and Daddy about their little demon seed, send it back to Hell, oh, and pick us up a gin and tonic, eh?
- Manny: Guidance, John. I can offer you guidance.
- John Constantine: Oh, thank you very much. I've made it through my life without any help from you.
- Manny: You sure about that? How do you know I wasn't by your side when your father burned you with his cigarette? Or stayed you from suicide when your sister left you alone with him?
- John Constantine: That's enough of that from you.
- Manny: You didn't have it easy, John. If you want to save a child, just remember what it was like to be one.
- John Constantine: Well, aren't you a regular little clever clock?
- John Constantine: You know, I've never punched an angel, but you are begging for it, mate.
- Manny: I could announce my arrival with trumpets. Used to have a tight horn section back in the day.
- John Constantine: Mm, I'm sure you did.
- John Constantine: I'm breaking in you stand watch.
- [Starts for the back of the house]
- John Constantine: If I need you I shall give a little whistle that suddenly chokes into silence.
