Quotes 

• Bartender (1989) : You waiting for someone?

  Hob Gadling : I think I've been stood up. We had a fight, last time we were here.

  Bartender (1989) : Ah.

  Hob Gadling : It was my fault. Wish I could say I was drunk at the time, but I was just an idiot.

  Bartender (1989) : I've seen plenty of friends get in fights in pubs. Even more of them laugh about it together later.

  Hob Gadling : Maybe in another hundred years.

  Bartender (1989) : Ah. You'll have to have find a new pub by then. This place has been sold to make room for new flats. The borough council are trying to stop them, but if you've got enough money in this country, you can do whatever you bloody want. Pour you another one, while you wait?

  Hob Gadling : Please.

• [in 1989] 

  Hob Gadling : Whiskey, please.

  Bartender (1989) : Uh, you'll have to be more specific. We got a menu now.

  Hob Gadling : Oh. What's the oldest you got?

  Bartender (1989) : Well, I've got a Glen Grant, old enough to be your father.

  Hob Gadling : [smiles]  I'm older than I look.
