"There are no permanent friends. There are no permanent enemies. There are only permanent interests."

A google search of that quote brought up these two sites-

Other than that, not a clue.

You think Dougal from the magic roundabout came up with that? (Possibly while high on "Sugar")

Benjamin Disraeli?

"Don't watch too much televeision Dougal. Chewing gum for the eyes"
"No thanks Ted"

"Who Invited that gobshite anyway? It can't have been you Dougal, I banned you from inviting people after that tramp stayed for a month"
"Ah come on now ted, he was the president of France"
"No he wasn't Dougal, he lied to you!"

"Hey Ted. You forgot your brick!"

"Dougal what are you doing up at this hour? You weren't watching that scary film where you?"
"Eh no Ted I was just taking the milk for a walk"

Or something like that

now remember dougal....very small....far away...very small...far away.
nope, you've lost me ted!

"Come on, Ted! A Volkswagen with a mind of its own? If that isn't scary, I don't know what is."

"Do you believe in God, Ted?"

"You wouldn't have a lasagna or a chicken curry or something like that?"
"No."
"OK, then maybe I'll just have a bag of chips, and could I have a Fanta Orange as well please."
"Do you know where you are? This is a Police station."
"Right, then in that case I'll just have the chicken satay and pilau rice."

I'd post some Father Jack quotes, but i'm scared of being banned :p

"...And don't call him Len"
enter bisshop Brennan
"Hello Len"

"...And don't call him Len"
enter bisshop Brennan
"Hello Len"

"what did you call me? I am a Bishop"
"well done"

"call Me By My Proper Fecking Title, You Little Gobshite!!!"

"There are no permanent friends. There are no permanent enemies. There are only permanent interests."

This sounds like something Henry Kissinger would say, but that's only a guess.

"God, I've heard about those cults Ted. People dressing up in black and saying Our Lord's going to come back and save us all."
"No, Dougal, that's us. That's Catholicism."
"Oh right."

"take this Dougal"
Hands Dougal a hot Kettle
"Ted... Ted... Ted..."
"What Dougal?"
"I'm in tremendous pain Ted"
"Well put it down Dougal!"

"How come all the rocks are different sizes?"

"Come on horsey take this sugar lump you know you want too"

"will you be wanting a cup of tea father?"

"What's going on?"
"I think Ted has a plan"
"No. I mean in general."

"Sorry Ted. I was concentrating too hard on looking holy."

"God I've never seen a clock at 5 a.m. before!"

"Sorry Ted. I was concentrating too hard on looking
holy."

priceless!!!!!
Fr.Jack quotes that i can remember:

"th-th-that-would-be-an-ecuminical-matter"

and (said in a high-pitched sarcastic voice)

"oh, i'm so, so sorry!"

:fluffle:

"Ted, will you look at this table. It's so dirty I could write me name in it."
"There's a G in 'Dougal'."
"Where?"

"oh, i'm so, so sorry!"


"Now that's sarcasm"

"There are no permanent friends. There are no permanent enemies. There are only permanent interests."
Lord Palmerston, the 19th century British Prime Minister

My Lovely Horse
Running through the.. field
Where are you going
With your fetlocks blowing
In the... wind

I want to shower you with sugar lumps
And ride you over...fences
I want to polish your hooves every single day
And bring you to the horse... dentist

My lovely horse
You're a pony no... more
Running around
With a man on your back
Like a train in the night
Like a train in the... night!"

"down with this sort of thing"
"careful now"

"Hail Mary who art in heaven......."
"Hallowed."
"Oh yeah. Hallowed Be...."
"Thy Name..."
"Papa Don't Preach........"
"Dougal, you know you can praise the lord with sleep. "
"Really Ted? You can praise him in lots of ways, like that time you said that I could praise him just by leaving the room."
"Yes, that was a good one !"

"Dougal, do we have any incense?"
"There was.. a spider in the bath the other night...."

Some random great quotes

What is it, how much is it and where can I buy some!?!

"It's like a great big tide of jam. But jam made out of... old women"

Zekhaust - Father Ted was a sitcom on British tv, that's where all the quotes are from.

Edit: another classic quote:

Dougal: God, I've heard about those cults Ted. People dressing up in black and saying Our Lord's going to come back and save us all.
Ted: No, Dougal, that's us. That's Catholicism.
Dougal: Oh right.

It was this man who said those words.

I got to find this crap on DVD.

I hate not having BBC America anymore.

Yes you do, it's brilliant :D


Ted: I'm not a fascist. I'm a priest. Fascists dress up in black and tell people what to do. Whereas priests...
...More drink!


Pat Mustard: I'm a very careful man, Father.
Ted: Except when it comes to taking precautions in the bedroom!
Pat: You're not advocating the use of artificial contraception now, are you?
Ted: Well, ye......well, no...well, naturally.....well, not really....well, of course you'd............JUST FECK OFF!



John: What can we do for you Father?
Dougal: I was looking for a pair of handcuffs actually.
John: A pair of handcuffs? What do you need them for?
Dougal: Oh nothing much, they're for me and Ted.
Mary: You and Father Ted?
Dougal: Yeah, we're just trying something out.
John: Well emm, actually, funnily enough we do have a pair. Sergeant Thornton left them here when he retired.
Dougal: Retired from what?
John: From the police.
Dougal: The police? Was Sergeant Thornton a policeman?
John: Emm, he was yes. Why do you think he wore the uniform?
Dougal: Oh I thought he was just having a laugh.
John: Anyway here's the handcuffs.
Dougal: Great, bye now.


I'm going to stop now :p

"You'd better get going, because milk gets sour. Unless it's UHT milk, but there's no demand for that. Because it's shite."

Dougal: Hello there Len.
Bishop Brennan: Don't call me Len, you prick. Refer to me as 'Bishop Brennan'!
Dougal: Ah right you are there Len.


Bishop Brennan: You will address me by my proper title, you little bollocks!
