Agnes Hurley: You're going to have a big wedding whether you like it or not! And if you don't like it, you don't have to come.
Agnes Hurley: Mad? How could I be mad at what's been my whole life? and will be to the end?
Agnes Hurley: Your pa and me was never alone together since the day after we was married.
Agnes Hurley: The only reason he married me was that my father, God rest his soul, met him one day at the union hall. They was both house painters, ya know. And he said, "Hurley, I'll give ya $300 if you'll marry my daughter." And he said he would, and he did.
Jane Hurley: I never heard that story, Ma.
Agnes Hurley: Oh, sure, sure. 'Course I'm exaggeratin' a little, but... but that's the gist of it.
Agnes Hurley: I don't know what to say to your pa. Go make him some breakfast, maybe it'll make him more peaceful.
