Ian McShane: Lovejoy

Quotes 

• Lovejoy : [Aside to camera as he walks toward Charlotte's house]  Always believe that tonight will be the night. One night it will.

• Lovejoy : [Angrily, to Beth]  Young lady, let me give you a lesson in life. When you see somebody hit their thumb with a hammer, do not offer any advice on how to hammer nails! Simply walk away without saying anything!

• Lovejoy : [Furious after Eric has caused his valuable gun to fall into the water]  That bone-headed rocker that you call a partner has just knocked my Purdey in the drink!

  Lovejoy : [Correcting him]  Associate.

  Charlie Gimbert : What?

  Lovejoy : [Patiently]  He's an associate, not a partner.

  Charlie Gimbert : [Angrily]  You should stop associating with imbeciles!
