- Mikey: [they have just climbed over the wall of a cemetery] I'm exhausted really, Nick. This is foolish. Nick, please. It's just foolish.
- Nicky: Foolish?
- Mikey: Frankly, I think it's ridiculous.
- Nicky: You didn't like my mother?
- Mikey: I loved your mother. I thought she was a wonderful woman.
- Nicky: Why is it ridiculous to visit her grave?
- Mikey: Because it's one o'clock in the morning.
- Nicky: That makes it nicer.
- Mikey: It doesn't make it anything, Nick. A grave is a grave. There's not a religion in the world that says a person's soul is buried with them in their grave. It's not your mother in there.
- Nicky: You don't believe in any of that stuff?
- Mikey: No.
- Nicky: You don't believe there's anything after you die?
- Mikey: Er, me personally, no. I believe you die and that's it.
- Nicky: That doesn't scare you? To think that one day'll you die. You'll be over. You won't be anything, you won't know anything. Be nothing.
- Mikey: Look, Nick, if you wanna visit your mother, let's visit your mother because this conversation is stupid.
- Nicky: It isn't stupid. It's interesting - if you're gonna die.
- Mikey: Well, I'm not gonna die so I think it's stupid.
- Nicky: Yeah, well you are some day.
- Mikey: Look, Nick...
- Nicky: You're gonna die some day.
- Mikey: I'm not gonna stand here at one o'clock in the morning and discuss what's gonna happen to me when I die. I mean, that mishegoss I leave to the Catholics.
- [he walks off]
- Nicky: Aren't you gonna die some day? Aren't you gonna die some day? Aren't you gonna die some day? I just wanna know, are you gonna die some day?
