     'lip, smart as a whip. straight a's and the honor roll. boy's definitely going somewhere.'

     'ian, industrious, conscientious, ambitious, incredible work ethic—don't have a clue where he got that from. wants to be a paratrooper. knows how to disembowel an enemy with a roll of dimes and an old gym sock.'

     'tuesday, or tilly— don't know why the fuck we call her that— she's a fighter. i've seen her in action, and i gotta say, she's pretty good. one of the most popular gallagher siblings, lots of people on the streets come up to me and talk about her, usually telling me that she beat their kid up or that she stole something from them. she's one of my favorites.'

     'and me, frank gallagher, father, teacher, mentor. captain of our little ship. we may not have much, but all of us know the most important thing in this life; we know how to fucking party!'
