- Andrew McKenzie: I'm phoning about the flat you had advertised. Is it still available, Madame?
- Andrew McKenzie: McKenzie, Andrew McKenzie.
- Andrew McKenzie: I'm a solicitor.
- Andrew McKenzie: Yes, it is a Scottish name. But actually I'm not Scottish, I come from Jamaica.
- Andrew McKenzie: Black? Yes, it does mean I'm black.
- Andrew McKenzie: I beg your pardon... how black, Madame? Hopelessly.

- Roddy Pater: You've got a way out. You could always go back to where the black man's king.
- Andrew McKenzie: Where's that?
- Roddy Pater: Back home. Or have you been lying to me?
- Andrew McKenzie: I've been lying to myself. What am I going to tell that blasted woman?
- Roddy Pater: Try telling her the truth.
- Andrew McKenzie: Which truth? That I can't compete? You wear the clothes, you get the accent, you get the education. Then what are you? A freak!
- Andrew McKenzie: It's a joke; me trying to get into the English middle class, and you trying to get out.
