Quotes from the Movie Barry Lyndon

Excuse me, sir!

Redmond Barry

Good morning again, young sir! [a young man on horseback approaches and holds Barry up from behind with a pistol]

Captain Feeny

Don't even think about it. Get down off that horse. Raise your hands high above your head, please. Come forward... stop. How do you do? I'm Captain Feeny.

Captain Feeny

Captain Feeny at your service.

Captain Feeny

THE Captain Feeny?

Redmond Barry

None other. May I introduce you to my son, Seamus.

Captain Feeny

How do you do?

Seamus

How do you do?

Redmond Barry

To whom have I the honor of speaking?

Captain Feeny

My name's Redmond Barry.

Redmond Barry

How do you do Mr. Barry? And now I'm afraid we must get on to the more regrettable stage of our brief acquaintance. Turn around, and keep your hands high above your head, please. [Seamus frisks Barry and finds a pouch full of money]

Captain Feeny

There must be 20 guineas in gold here, father!

Seamus

Well, well, well. You seem to be a very well set up young gentleman, sir!

Captain Feeny

Captain Feeny, that's all the money my mother had in the world. Mightn't I be allowed to keep it? I'm just one step ahead of the law myself. I killed an English officer in a duel, and I'm on my way to Dublin until things cool down.

Redmond Barry:

Mr. Barry, in my profession we hear many such stories. Yours is one of the most intriguing and touching I've heard in many weeks. Nevertheless, I'm afraid I cannot grant your request. But I'll tell you what I will do. I'll allow you to keep those fine pair of boots which in normal circumstances I would have for myself. The next town is only 5 miles away, and I suggest you now start walking.
