Quotes 

  • Nasser : I thought you two were getting married.

    Omar : Yes, any day now.

    Tania : I'd rather drink my own urine.

    Omar : I hear it can be quite tasty with a slice of lemon.

  • Nasser : Yes... But first we must marry Omar off.

    [Cut to Omar and Johnny making love in the back room] 

  • Nasser : [to Omar]  In this damn country, which we hate and love, you can get anything you want. It's all spread out and available. That's why I believe in England. Only you need to know how to squeeze the tits of the system.

  • Nasser : [to Johnny]  I'm a professional businessman not a professional Pakistani. And there is no question of race in the new enterprise culture.

  • Nasser : [Nasser bursts into the room where Johnny and Omar made love just moments before]  What the hell are you doing? Sunbathing?

    Omar : Asleep, Uncle. We were shagged out.

  • Nasser : Where are those two buggers?

  • Nasser : [to Omar]  Bring Tania over here. Marry her. Well, what's wrong with her? When I say marry her, you damn well do it. Be nice to her, pressure off my fucking head. Your penis works doesn't it? Get going!

  • Papa : This damn country has done us in. That's why I'm like this. We should be there. Home.

    Nasser : But that country's been sodomised by religion. It's beginning to interfere with the making of money. Compared with everywhere... it's a little heaven, here.

  • Nasser : [whilst having sex with his lover]  Christ, you move like a liner.

  • Nasser : [to Omar]  Nothing but a toilet and a youth club. A constant boil on my bum.

  • Nasser : [to Omar]  Okay, I charge you basic rent. The key you keep.

  • Nasser : What are you doing, boy?

    Omar : It will be going into profit any day now. Partly because I hired a bloke of astounding competence and strength of body and mind.

  • Omar : What are you going to do with me?

    Nasser : What am I going to do with you? Turn you into something damn good.

  • Nasser : [to Omar]  On the other hand a little water on the brain might clear your thoughts.

  • Nasser : What bloke?

    Omar : He's called Johnny.

  • Nasser : I can't go back. Religion is sodomizing the country. It's getting in the way of making money.

  • Nasser : [Rachel on top]  Ahh! What do you think I am, your trampoline?

    Rachel : Oh, yes, yes, yes... a trampoline.

    Nasser : Speak my language, damn it.

    Rachel : I'll do nothing else, Nasser. Do you think we'll ever part?

    Nasser : Not at the moment!

    Rachel : I'm serious!

    Nasser : Ahh... Just keep moving. Oh! Just there! Oh, I love you. Oh, darling. Christ! You move like a niner.

  • Nasser : So, your papa got thrown out of that clerk's job I fixed him with? Pissed, was he?

  • Nasser : I presume my brother, the boy's Papa, was out screwing some barmaid, somewhere. So, when these tappings went on, I got out of bed, went to the balcony and opened the door. And there was my brother, he was standing outside with some woman - and they were completely without clothes. Blue with cold, like two bars of soap. This I refer to as my brother's blue period.

  • Nasser : My blue brother was also a famous journalist in Bombay. And a great drinker. He was to the bottle what Louis Armstrong is to the trumpet.

    Salim : But you are to the bookies what Mother Teresa is to the children.

  • Nasser : Take my advice. There's money in muck.

  • Nasser : He's hired someone else to do the work.

    Salim : Typically English, if I can say that.

  • Nasser : And now on to business. I've been to see the laundrette. You boys will make a beautiful job of it, I know.

  • Nasser : Send him to the garage and call Tania. Ask her to bring some champagne. We'll drink to *Thatcher* - and your beautiful laundrette.

    Johnny : Do they go together?

    Nasser : Like dal and chapatis.
