Quotes5

  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: When the President runs amuck, wise men stay at home.
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: We were deeply shocked by what happened at your uncle's funeral. In fact, I tried to organize a protest from the Diplomatic Corps.
  • Henri Philipot: Yes?
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: Yes. They were very diplomatic.
  • Henri Philipot: They were right. Words break no bones.
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: It's a horrifying world. I sometimes think that Haiti's no different from life - anywhere.
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: I'd like to know New York.
  • Brown: Perhaps one of these days, you will be posted to Washington.
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: No, I'll never be posted there. My wife's German, you know.
  • Brown: Yes, I know, but the war's been over now for 20 years.
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: Her father was executed as a war criminal in the American zone.
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: Perhaps even Papa Doc is playing a part in those shabby black tails of his.
  • Henri Philipot: Oh no, he's real enough. Horror is always real.
  • Ambassador Manuel Pineda: We shouldn't be ashamed of being comedians. You know, it's an honorable profession. If only we were good ones, we could perhaps give the world a, I don't know, sense of style. After all, there are times when we all play a part, even in a good marriage.
  • [puts his arm around Martha]
