Quotes8

  • Willie Garvin: Here. We now have been through some scrapes together, have we? Funny how we always survived, isn't it?
  • Modesty Blaise: [licking on a large ice cream cone] Survived... each other?
  • Willie Garvin: Well, we shared the fights.
  • Modesty Blaise: But never shared the nights.
  • Willie Garvin: Perhaps we should've.
  • Modesty Blaise: We could've.
  • Willie Garvin: [he starts singing] At Covent Garden, il Trovatore, we were shot at in the stalls.
  • Modesty Blaise: [she starts singing] They all believed it was in the story.
  • Willie Garvin: And we took nine curtain calls.
  • Modesty Blaise: Perhaps eight would have been enough.
  • Willie Garvin: We've shared the thrills.
  • Modesty Blaise: We've even shared the kills.
  • Willie Garvin: But such a perfect pair, should surely share a bedroom.
  • Modesty Blaise: You know, it's cheaper, too.
  • Willie Garvin: It ain't. The other Summer, in Arizona, I was sentenced to the chair.
  • Modesty Blaise: But they didn't realize I knew the owner of the power station there.
  • Willie Garvin, Modesty Blaise: We've bombed and mined, but never intertwined.
  • Willie Garvin: We were crazy, you know.
  • Modesty Blaise: I was lazy.
  • Willie Garvin: I know.
  • Willie Garvin, Modesty Blaise: Yes, we should've, and we could've. Perhaps we can...
  • Modesty Blaise: Where are you taking me?
  • Gabriel: You are on board the Andronicus bound from Bizerte to Dubrovnik with a cargo of fruits and nuts.
  • Willie Garvin: He's a fruit merchant, see?
  • Modesty Blaise: He's a nut.
  • Gabriel: That's enough of that.
  • Willie Garvin: [about Mrs. Fothergill] Who's the bird with the beady eyes?
  • Willie Garvin: I figure it this way, princess: Gabriel's got it figured; so, I figure, all's we got to do is - stay close to Gabriel.
  • Modesty Blaise: Leave the figuring to me, Willie. You might hurt yourself.
  • Sir Gerald Tarrant: How the devil did you get a passport, Garvin?
  • Willie Garvin: Just because I'm working class?
  • Sir Gerald Tarrant: Lower class, you mean, surely.
  • Nicole: You're so cruel.
  • Willie Garvin: Cruel? I haven't touched you yet.
  • Nicole: No.
  • [Garvin touches her]
  • Willie Garvin: Home to bed? Why not?
  • Modesty Blaise: Why not?
  • Willie Garvin: Why not?
  • Modesty Blaise: Why not?
  • Willie Garvin: Why not?
  • Modesty Blaise: Why not?
  • Modesty Blaise, Willie Garvin: [singing] Yes, we should do, And we could do, Now, we can!
