"But London is just smoke and trouble, Thomas." "Thomas?" "That's all I have to say." "That was a lot of words, a lot of words." "Wash them down with a nice drink." "Thank you, Esme." "Firstly, the bang in the pub had nothing to do with London." "Understood?" "The bang is something I'm dealing with on my own." "Secondly, we've nothing to fear from the proposed business expansion so long as we stick together." "And after the first few weeks, nine tenths of what we do in London will be legal." "The other tenth is in good hands." "Isn't that right, Arthur?" "That's right." "Now, some of you in this room have expressed your reservations." "Fair enough."

"The Italian gangs and the Jewish gangs have been at war in London for six months." "It's not our war." "The Jews have been having the worst of it." "They need allies." " Yeah, but we don't."

"Do you know, it was a fine speech you made in there, about this company believing in equal rights for women." "But when it comes to it, you don't listen to a word we say."

"So I came here to find out." "Er..." "You see, my son and my daughter were taken from me when they were very small." "Taken by the parish authorities and I never knew what happened to them." "But lately..." "I've had a feeling." "Like, a feeling..." "I can't put it into words." "And I keep having a dream." "I see a pretty girl, about 18-yea rs-old." "She's standing across the street and she tells me she's passed over." "Now, my daughter would have been 18 this year." "On May 15th." "And this girl has dark eyes like mine." "And she shouts and shouts." "And she tells me she wants to talk to me because I'm her mother." "Now, I don't even know what name they gave her after they stole her from me." "But if she does want to say goodbye," "I thought this would be the place." "You're wearing the Black Madonna." "You're gypsy?" "The part of me that dreams is gypsy."
