You think you can win, well at least that God is on your side?


Cardinal Glennon: We've never had a priest working with the Mafia before. But I suppose you made some interesting contacts in Rome.

Stephen Fermoyle: I had no choice, Your Eminence. I had to work my way through the seminary by selling opium in St. Peter's Square.

Cardinal Glennon: You're not afraid of me.


Cardinal Glennon: Why not? Most people are.

Stephen Fermoyle: I think it's because you remind me of my father. He was known as "Den the Down Shouter," but I soon learned his roar was the only fierce thing about him.

Cardinal Glennon: He's a lucky man to have a son who's not afraid of him.

(The Cardinal, 1963)
