  • James Conway O'Donnell: Who are you? Who's paying you?
  • Philip 'Cockeye' Stein: I think this is gonna piss you off, Mac. I think it's those dirty politician friends of yours.
  • James Conway O'Donnell: Yeah? Well, you crawl back and tell 'em we don't want you in with us. Our fight's got nothing to do with liquor and prostitution and dope.
  • Max: Well, you'd better get used to the idea, pal. This country is still growing up. Certain diseases it's better to have when you're still young.
  • James Conway O'Donnell: You boys ain't a mild case of the measles. You're the plague.
  • [points at Crowning]
  • James Conway O'Donnell: And bastards like HIM are immune. That's the difference between us and them!
  • [Noodles puts Jimmy's coat on him, making him flinch]
  • Noodles: Take it easy! The difference is, they're always gonna win. And you're gonna keep gettin' it up the ass.
  • Crowning: Sooner than you think.
  • Sharkey: [O'Donnell has been shot in the leg by Crowning's henchmen] Don't worry, Jimmy. With one leg a little shy, you're gonna take giant steps.
  • James Conway O'Donnell: Yeah... always one step behind you, eh Sharkey?
