    Saturday Night and Sunday Morning quotes

    • Arthur Seaton: It costs too much to get married, a lump sum down and your wages a week for life.

      Bert: Most blokes ain't got aught else to work for, have they?

      Arthur Seaton: No. I have though. I work for the factory, the income tax and the insurance already, that's enough for a bit. They rob you right, left and centre. After they've skinned you dry you get called up to the army and get shot to death.

      Bert: That's how things are Arthur, no good going crackers over it. All you can do is go on working and hope that some day something good will turn up.

    • Brenda: Yes, yes it's yours right enough. Haven't done aught like that with Jack for a couple of months or more - and I don't want to have it I can tell you that now!

      Arthur Seaton: Have you tried aught, took aught I mean.

      Brenda: Yes, some pills, they didn't work. 30 bob they cost me too, gone right down the drain.

      Arthur Seaton: God almighty.

      Brenda: He won't help you.
