"It's Jesus as a wain."
Derry Girls
"[James] Why has he got a big red hat on?"

Derry Girls
"Therefore, we are joined this morning"
Derry Girls
"by Mr. Malone, headmaster of St. Benedict's,"
Derry Girls
"so the handover ceremony can take place."
Derry Girls
"You are very welcome, Mr. Malone..."
Derry Girls
"though I fear you may have had a wasted journey."
Derry Girls
"I've thought about it,"
Derry Girls
"and I'd much rather just hold onto him, actually."
Derry Girls
"He brightens up my office."
Derry Girls
"He doesn't answer back."
Derry Girls
"I like the fella."
Derry Girls
"And if the Bishop has a problem with that, he can take it up with me."

"♪ And I know that it's not clear... ♪"
Derry Girls
"[sighs]"
Derry Girls
"What is it we should be doing, Miss?"
Derry Girls
"[sighs] What should you be doing?"
Derry Girls
"Now, there's the question."
Derry Girls
"Let me ask you a better one."
Derry Girls
"What is it you want to do?"
Derry Girls
"-Get pissed. -Hmm."
Derry Girls
"I'd quite like some feedback on the poetry assignment, actually."

"Some flowers barely grow at all.""
Derry Girls
"OK."
Derry Girls
"-That's not the end. -It should be."

Derry Girls
"especially the ones who have a nice ass.""
Derry Girls
"It's called a haiku."

Derry Girls
"Oh, here someone's just drawn a picture of a dog."
Derry Girls
"That is not bad, actually."
Derry Girls
"Thank you very much."
Derry Girls
"This person has written about how much they love their English class,"
Derry Girls
"in an embarrassing attempt to suck up to the teacher."
Derry Girls
"Dog poem."
Derry Girls
"Dog poem. Cat poem."
Derry Girls
"Yes?"
Derry Girls
"I think a lot of people in this class--"
Derry Girls
"and I know no one will mind me saying this--"
Derry Girls
"well, they have a very basic grasp of the creative process,"
Derry Girls
"whereas I've been writing for years,"
Derry Girls
"so, I'm really not afraid to put myself out there,"
Derry Girls
"to be bold,"

"No, I understand the weak analogy."
Derry Girls
"This isn't bold, Erin."
Derry Girls
"It's someone failing to be bold."
Derry Girls
"I'm sorry if the subtleties of my work were lost on you, Ms. De Brún."
Derry Girls
"Poetry is truth,"
Derry Girls
"and great poetry is raw,"
Derry Girls
"and real, and messy,"
Derry Girls
"and glorious and ugly."
Derry Girls
"It is dragged from the depths of the soul."
Derry Girls
"It helps us understand each other"
Derry Girls
"and ourselves."
Derry Girls
"Do you get what I'm saying?"
Derry Girls
"Yes. Yes, I think I do, actually."
Derry Girls
"Not a baldy's."
Derry Girls
"It's not often in life"
Derry Girls
"you're allowed to tear up the page and start over."
Derry Girls
"but I am going to give you that chance."
Derry Girls
"Impress me."
