  • [Jack McDermott sits nude in his room and drinks red wine] 

    Jack McDermott : This is the body and blood of our savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. And a damned fine Beaujolais!

  • [Their van is being towed] 

    Jack : Stop! Who dares to tow the van of the living Christ?

    Tow Man : The city of New York, Tarzan! $50 for the violation, $75 for the tow and $20 a day for storage.

    Jack : [Skyward]  Father, forgive us for we have sinned! We parked our car in a forbidden zone!

  • Gianelli : [Pointing to his gun]  I'll use this.

    Jack : I have died and been reborn. I can do it again, buster.

  • Billy : We gotta come up with $165, get the van and pull Weitzman out of the hospital before those two goddamn cops come back. Now how's that for a goal?

    Jack : Us? But we're crazy.

    Billy : Yeah? Well we better get sane real goddamn fast.

  • Jack : You told me you played for the New York Rangers.

    Billy : Are you saying I didn't?

    Dr. Weitzman : Attacking a referee on the ice doesn't make you a hockey player either.

    Billy : That guy had no right to be an NHL referee!

    Dr. Weitzman : Although it did get you into our little group, didn't it?

  • Jack : Hey Murray, congratulations.

    Murray : What are you talking about?

    Jack : Benson called while I was in there. You got the Natachi account.

    Murray : [excitedly]  We got it? Really, we got it?

    [Dances and shouts] 

    Murray : We got the Natachi account! We got the Natachi account.

    Jack : Hey, Murray?

    Murray : Yeah?

    Jack : Just kidding!

    [Murray's face falls in disappointment] 

    Jack : Wah wah wah wah.

  • Jack McDermott : I am the Lord they God. Thou shalt not have strange gods before Me. Out of my way, asshole.

  • Jack : [Begins to undress]  We are all naked in the eyes of the lord.

    Henry : STOP! This man is clinically insane! He is presently undergoing treatment at Cedarbrook Hospital under my supervision!

    Jack : [He and Henry are quickly ejected]  If I only saved one soul in there, it was well worth it.

  • Jack : I was pulling down a hundred big ones a year while you and Satan were chasing Daryl Hannah!

  • Jack : You two should be cast into the outer darkness. The rec hall will look pretty damn good from the bowels of Hell.

    Billy : I got news for you. You're gonna be the first Supreme Being EVER TO MAKE A LICENSE PLATE!

  • Jack : I fear my doctor may have been seized by the Romans!

  • [last lines] 

    Henry : Hey guys, time for a hug?

    Jack : I don't think so.

    Billy : Maybe after the game.

    Albert : Play ball!

  • [They are under a large cardboard box in the rain] 

    Henry : I think we should review our goals.

    Billy : Review our goals. Wacko, we gotta find the doctor.

    Henry : Who put you in charge? I'm in charge here.

    Jack : Read the New Testament, Sparky. You'll find out who's in charge.

    Billy : Get outta the way!

    [They bump a pedestrian] 

    Billy : Albert, you step on my foot one more time, I'm gonna kill ya!

    Albert : Kill the ump!

    Jack : Why does a grown man have to smell like tuna fish?

  • Jack : Let me hold the gun.

    Henry : No.

    Jack : I let you sit in the front seat!

  • Billy : [referring to Jack]  We're looking for something casual for the Son of God.

    Bernie : How much does the Supreme Being wanna spend?

    Jack : How about a nice Harris tweed with a blue Oxford button-down and maybe a nice Countess Mara tie, eh, sport?

    Billy : [to the guys]  Look, why don't you guys browse around for a while.

    [They just stand there] 

    Billy : Browse!

  • Jack McDermott : I don't want him next to me. He smells like tuna fish.

  • Jack : Great! Breakfast. I'm starved.

    Henry : That's not ours. That's Ed's.

    Jack : Did Ed make the sun shine? Did Ed make the wheat grow?

    Henry : I don't know the man.

  • Dr. Verboven : Jack, Jesus Christ would never point a gun at another human being.

    Jack McDermott : Stay out of my psychosis! Now get your ass in that van.

  • Jack : I drove the moneylenders from the temple. I can handle a ten-spot.

  • Henry : Dr. Newald's going to be very, very, very upset. I'm going to have to make a full report.

    Jack McDermott : You're a sick man. It's a sickness of the soul.

    [flips Henry the finger] 

    Jack McDermott : Put *this* in your report!

    Albert : Foul ball!

  • Billy : This is like asking Lassie a question. "Did Timmy fall into the well? Did he, girl?" Look, Albert... did they take Weitzman away in an ambulance?

    Albert : [deep breath, then nods]  Big inning.

    Billy : That's a definite yes.

    Jack : But all he said was "big inning."

    Billy : Yeah, but he was nodding when he said it, right, Albert?

    Albert : [nodding]  Big inning.

    Billy : See? All you had to do was learn how to talk, Albert.

  • Jack : This is a brilliant manipulation of negative space.

    Ed : That's a very interesting interpretation.

    Jack : Do you know WHY it's a brilliant manipulation of negative space?

    Ed : No

    Jack : Because Jesus LIKES IT that way.

  • Jack McDermott : What about dinner? Who's gonna get us our dinner?

    Billy : "Who's gonna get us our..." aren't you the same guy who changed water into wine? Huh? J.C.? Ain't the son of God good for a burger in his town? You get us something!

    Jack McDermott : That's not funny. You're a very disturbed young man.

    Billy : Man you don't know how disturbed I am.

  • Henry : [5:37]  I'm going to have to include this in my report to Dr. Weitzman.

    Jack McDermott : Call not for a doctor but for an elder of the church. Leviticus 5:14.

  • Dr. Weitzman : [12:16]  Now, Jack, last time we had you set a goal for yourself.

    Jack McDermott : Well my original goal was to rid the world of Satan's influence and to bring Jesus Christ into the advertising business, where he belongs.

    Dr. Weitzman : Yes but I think the revised version was to set a goal for Jack McDermott, not Jesus Christ.

    Henry : Dr. Weitzman, he's still walking around naked. I think he still has a long way to go.

    Billy : For a guy who runs the universe, I think he's scared shitless.

    Billy : Let me ask you a question, you rose yourself up from the dead, right? Now did the agency give you some extra perks for that or just those extra three days off?

    Jack McDermott : You weren't there! I was pulling down 100 big ones a year while you and Satan were out chasing Darryl Hannah!
