Gillian Darmody quotes from Boardwalk Empire

Gillian Darmody

The men talk, the Geisha retires.

Gillian Darmody

Childhood doesn't last. Nothing lasts.

Gillian Darmody

You can make yourself live with anything.

Gillian Darmody

I was under the impression that you could do anything.

Nucky Thompson

I'm not God, Gillian.

Gillian Darmody

Now you tell me.

Lucky Luciano

I'm a friend of James.

Gillian Darmody

His friends call him Jimmy, so who are you really?

Lucky Luciano

I'm a, whatchacallit, an acquaintance. From New York.

Gillian Darmody

That part I suspected. What's your name?

Lucky Luciano

Never mind my name. Is he here or ain't he?

Gillian Darmody

He's not.

Lucky Luciano

Then where is he?

Gillian Darmody

Maybe he's up your ass. Have you considered looking there?

Gillian Darmody

There will have to be a funeral, of course. It's important that everything look right. There won't be many people there, anyway. She didn't have a very wide circle, did she? The other one... not a local girl. They're trying to find some family. Not our concern. We'll need to consider Tommy. I told him, "Mommy went away for a few days to paint." That buys us some time. I think, tell me if I'm wrong, we'll say that she went to live with her friends in Paris, and she wants her little boy to stay here, where he'll be safe with his daddy, who works so hard, and his meemaw, who loves him so very much. And, you know what? A month from now - and I don't mean to sound cold - he won't even remember who she was...

Jimmy Darmody

I'll remember! I'll remember! I'll remember! I'll remember!

Gillian Darmody

No!

Gillian Darmody

Then finish it, goddamn you! Finish it!

Gyp Rosetti

You laughin' at me?

Gillian Darmody

Why not? Everybody else does.

Nucky Thompson

Been busy today, hmm? What's your name? You must have a name.

Gillian Darmody

Nellie Bly.

Nucky Thompson

Don't cut shines with me. That's what it says on the book. I'm Nucky. That's my brother Eli. It's not as bad as you think. Just tell me your name.

Gillian Darmody

Gillian.

Nucky Thompson

That's not a name for a boy.

Gillian Darmody

I'm not a boy.
