De onbekende vrouw (1937)

John Beal: Raymond Fleuriot

Quotes 

• Raymond Fleuriot : I want to help you Madame, but I can't unless you tell me what the circumstances were. A thing like this can't happen without a reason. Please tell me what it was. Your life is at stake. Don't you understand, your life!

  Jacqueline Fleuriot : If you could save my life, I wouldn't thank you for it. I've had enough of it. Quite.

• Raymond Fleuriot : But it all seems so hopeless, Father. What can you say for a woman when she won't speak for herself? What can you tell a jury when you've got nothing to say?

  Bernard Fleuriot : Well, there's an old one I've used once or twice- simple, effective.

  Raymond Fleuriot : What is it?

  Bernard Fleuriot : If your client is a woman and the case is difficult, find some man and blame it all on him.

  Maurice Dourel : Right, it's all our fault, and here's to the sweet, foolish women who go right on letting us do it.
