Quotes7

  • Dr. Richard Talbot: [finishing her bandage] There, it doesn't look bad.
  • Nora Prentiss: The bandage or the leg?
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: Young lady, I...
  • Nora Prentiss: Can't you decide, doctor?
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: Well, I made the bandage. I didn't make the leg.
  • [Nora laughs]
  • Nora Prentiss: I'm the girl who waits, Richard... and I'm tired of waiting!
  • Nora Prentiss: Well, Doc, thanks for the cigarette and the drink. In fact, thanks for everything.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: Oh, that's quite all right. Good night.
  • Nora Prentiss: Uh, just a minute. How much do I owe you?
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: Oh, I'll send you a bill.
  • Nora Prentiss: Got the name?
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: Prentiss. Nora Prentiss.
  • Nora Prentiss: Don't forget.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: I won't.
  • Nora Prentiss: By the way, you've been, uh, very patient with me. You may not have noticed, but I was a little fresh.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: I noticed.
  • Nora Prentiss: I don't know why, but... something about you. Next time I'll be polite.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: That's fine. Next time my bill won't be so large.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: I don' t know what's happened to me...
  • Nora Prentiss: I happened to you, that's what!
  • Nora Prentiss: [driver and cop looking at her legs] I've been examined already!
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: I could never prove my innocence. You know that. They'd never believe me. If a man commits one crime, it's easy to suspect him of another. Besides, I am guilty of killing a man. I killed Richard Talbot.
  • Nora Prentiss: If there was only something I could do.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: There is. Keep this to yourself. Never breathe a word of it to anyone. Promise.
  • Nora Prentiss: You can't ask me to go on living with a memory that I could have saved you and didn't. You can't do that.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: If I can die remembering that, you can live remembering it.
  • Dr. Richard Talbot: I'm writing a paper on ailments of the heart.
  • Nora Prentiss: A paper? I could write a book!
