“I solomnly swear I never did a deal with Stooie Levine, The AntiChrist or his boss — who have never charged with wrongdoing — George Ryan or a partrich in a pear tree.
“…and I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.”
“You know what they call a quarter pounder in Amsterdam? A royale with cheese.”
“I know I am more charismatic and have a much better presence in front of the camera and crowd, not to mention an endorsement from the Lord, but Andy has the money, so I am now running for Lt. Governor”.
“You won’t believe what happened to me! I was in one of those big state cars, you know, with the tinted windows - sitting in the back - and I just finished a second Big Mac Value Mean that Andy said I just had to finish for him, when all of a sudden I felt sick. So I rolled the window down to get some fresh air, you know, to air out that icky Big Mac Value Meal smell in the car, when the car stopped and this cute little black girl points towards me and yells out, “Look! It’s Mayor Daley!” I kid you not!”
