Quotes 

• Father James Lavelle : I've always felt there's something inherently psychopathic about joining the army in peacetime. As far as I'm concerned, people join the army to find out what its like to kill someone. I hardly think that's an inclination that should be encouraged in modern society, do you? Jesus Christ didn't think so, either. And the commandment "Thou shalt not kill" does not have an asterisk beside it, referring you to the bottom of the page where you find a list of instances where it's okay to kill people.

  Milo Herlihy : What about self defense?

  Father James Lavelle : That's a tricky one, all right. But we're hardly being invaded, though, are we?

  Milo Herlihy : The war on terror has no borders.

  Father James Lavelle : I don't think Sligo is too high on Al-Quaeda's agenda, Milo, do you?

  Milo Herlihy : Who knows what goes on in the Muslim mind?

• Milo Herlihy : I have had murderous feelings, though, I have to admit. Not getting laid, it's starting to make me feel really angry towards women. And so I thought, well, if I join the Army, those inclinations, as you call them, would be seen as a plus. On your application, like. They don't come right out and say that's what they're looking for. In the advertisements, it's all about seeing the world and all that shite. But I would assume that wanting to murder someone would be like having a degree in engineering, you know, it would outweigh my lack of qualifications.

• Father James Lavelle : Do you use pornography at home?

  Milo Herlihy : I feel I've exhausted all the possibilities of pornography.

  Father James Lavelle : All of them?

  Milo Herlihy : Well, nearly all of them. I'm on to transexual pornography at the moment. Chicks with dicks, you know.

• Father James Lavelle : Leave home. Go somewhere where your chances of meeting available young women with loose morals are increased proportionately.

  Milo Herlihy : Sligo town, d'you mean?

  Father James Lavelle : No, I was thinking more: Dublin, London, New York.

  Milo Herlihy : New York? I'd only end up getting the AIDS, knowing my luck. Thanks for taking the time to talk to me, Father. I can't say it's been of much help, but it's good to get these things out in the open, I suppose.
