Quotes 

• John Constantine : [urinating]  Be an angel. Come over here and hold it for me, will you? You know, you're like a blister. You only turn up when the hard work's done.

  Manny : I've been around.

  John Constantine : You spent time with Zed today, didn't you? Oh, I feel betrayed. I didn't realize we were seeing other people now.

  Manny : Oh. Come on, John. You and I both know she is not other people.

  John Constantine : You're right. Seems we're not the only ones who think that.

  Manny : Jim Corrigan. You're jealous.

  John Constantine : You know, I've learned to handle it when people around me die. I've had plenty of practice. Let's just hope she's strong enough.

  Manny : That's not what's really troubling you though, is it?

  John Constantine : I stare into the face evil every bloody day. It usually manifests itself as a demon, a malevolent spirit, a bloody zombie, but now...

  Manny : John, you've encountered human evil before.

  John Constantine : I have, but this is something else entirely. We now know what happens when the rising darkness meets the worst of humanity. There's not an evil in any realm more bloody dangerous than that.

  Manny : This thing that we set out to do, you and I, it's working. We can win this war. Trust me.

  John Constantine : Huh. Of course we can. You know me. I don't play if I can't win. All I'm worried about is how to spend the rest of my days after I've driven every last bastard demon back to where it belongs.

• John Constantine : Now, what is really going on, Zed? What are you hiding?

  Zed Martin : I saw Jim dead. In my vision.

• John Constantine : You finally did it. You traded your last thread of honor for a lousy, bloody bounty.

  Papa Midnite : Your next words will be your last, Constantine. Choose them wisely.

  John Constantine : There's a girl out there with a depraved killer. I'm her only chance of rescue. Can any bounty be worth that stain on your soul?

  Papa Midnite : I gave up on my soul a long time ago. I'm sorry for the girl, but yes, the bounty is worth it. Your sacrifice will free my sister's soul from eternal damnation. A life for a life.

  John Constantine : No one has that kind of power. Except the Brujeria.

  Papa Midnite : It seems that you angered them, John. Not your smartest move.

  John Constantine : Apparently not.

  Papa Midnite : If not me, someone else would've collected. Who would dare deny them?

  John Constantine : I don't suppose, uh... I can tempt you with a counter...

  [Papa shoots at John's head only to notice he's shot the corpse of a dead guard in the head; John hits him from behind] 

  John Constantine : You're not the only one who can reanimated a corpse. I just added a glamour spell. Nifty, eh?

  Papa Midnite : You better kill me, Constantine.

  John Constantine : Oh, shut it.

  [John hits Papa in the face with the shotgun] 

• John Constantine : Tell me. What would happen after a man like this, after everything he's done, murdered all those children, what would happen if he were to try and run away?

  Jim Corrigan : He ain't no demon, he ain't no ghost. He's a man.

  John Constantine : A man? Is he, Jim?
