- I signed on, drunk as I was, and she's sailing tomorrow.

- Where is she going? Far away?

- Cape Town. It is at the end of Africa. That's far for you.

- What's the boat's name?

- The Londonderry.

- The Londonderry?

- Oh, this is too much.

- Faith, I don't blame you for laughing at me. True, it is the fool of the world I am to come back to talk to you at all.

- Oh, what's the use? What's the use of me talking? What's the use of anything?

- Anna, if I could only be believing I was the only man in the world... ever you had love for, I could be forgetting the rest, maybe.

Sure, it's that you're needing in your family. An Irishman. A man of the stokehold to put guts in it... so you'll not be rearing up grandchildren to be jackasses like yourself.

I'm glad you don't marry sailor. Is bad for woman. They don't never see their men only once in long while. You sit and wait all alone, and when their boys grow up and go on sea, they sit and wait some more.
