Frank Gallagher Quotes

(Doctors told Frank he'll die if he won't stop drinking alcohol...)

Frank Gallagher: Tragedy makes kids tough, Fiona.

Fiona Gallagher: Then be the fabulous narcissist that you are, and do it for yourself.

Frank Gallagher: What if I don't want to change?

Fiona Gallagher: Then I would know what I've always feared is true.

Frank Gallagher: What is that?

Fiona Gallagher: That you don't give a sh*t about any of us. So do it for you. Do it for your kids. It doesn't matter. Do it.

Fiona Gallagher: He said if you don't stop drinking, you're gonna die. As in dead, you know, like, no longer living? And soon.

Frank Gallagher: When did you start to care?

Fiona Gallagher: Not sure that I do. I've dreamt about your death. Put money in a collection box and prayed for it. Blew out my birthday candles, wished for it. If it actually ever happened, I don't know if I'd feel relief or guilt.

Frank Gallagher (laughs): Your birthday candles?

Fiona Gallagher: I wrote a letter to Santa once.

Frank Gallagher: So I'm supposed to stop drinking so that you don't feel guilty?

Fiona Gallagher: No. You're supposed to stop drinking because you have children at home who love you. And I don't know why. Who would be destroyed if anything happened to you.

Fiona Gallagher: The doctor talk to you, Frank?

Frank Gallagher: Yeah. "Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, stop drinking. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah."

Fiona Gallagher: He told me you were really sick.

Frank Gallagher: Do I look really sick to you? (flexes)

Fiona Gallagher: Said you were throwing up blood.

Frank Gallagher: That's 'cause I've got too much of it in me. It's a filtration process. My body knows how to flush itself out.
