- See poor aul Maureen O’Hara died Jimmy
- Lord rest her. She was a great age but Bernie
- Ninety five. Jaysis imagine living to be ninety five
- She looked great for her age. She always reminded me of me ma
- She wasn’t a bit like your ma. Your ma had brown hair, before she went grey I mean. Maureen was a redhead
- I’m not talking about her hair Bernie. I mean her manner
- What? A drama Queen you mean?
- My ma is not a drama Queen
- Whatever you say Jimmy
- Maureen never forgot where she came from. My ma is the same.
- Your ma has lived in The Liberties all her life Jimmy, she’s hardly likely to forget
- She was a passionate woman
- Who? Your ma?
- No Maureen. Remember her in ‘The Quiet Man’
- She was acting Jimmy. she was an actress
- Me da always said she had fire in her blood
- Maureen?
- No, me ma. I believe she was a wild woman in her day
- …and him such a quiet man himself
- Except when he drank whiskey
- Remember what he said when you’d ask him if he’d like a drop of water for his whiskey Jimmy.
- ‘When I drink whiskey I drink whiskey. When I drink water I drink water’
- He robbed that from the movie
- He said they robbed it from him
- The quiet man
- …and the wild woman
- R.I.P. Da
- R.I.P. Maureen
