Quotes6

  • Potemkin: Have you had a college education, darling? I have.
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: Certainly. I am a bachelor of arts.
  • Potemkin: Once she know you are a bachelor, Catherine will supply the arts.
  • Potemkin: In Russia, a gentleman has no scruples. In Russia we face facts.
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: In England a gentleman never faces any facts if they are unpleasant.
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: Don't call me 'darling'. I've been called 'darling' all morning.
  • Claire: By who?
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: By everybody. By the most unutterable swine. And if we don't leave this abominable city now - do you hear, now! - I shall be called 'darling' by the empress.
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: I must allow myself to say, ma'am, that your uncle had better not attempt to kick an Englishman downstairs.
  • Potemkin: You want me to kick you upstairs?
  • Potemkin: You have no hearts, you English! Heart! Heart!
  • [slaps the right side of his chest]
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: Pardon, your highness. Your heart is on the other side.
  • [...]
  • Potemkin: Darling! A true Russian has a heart on both sides!
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: Your majesty, would you be a little angel mother and tie me up again?
  • Catherine: Charles...
  • [she ties him up like a trussed chicken]
  • Capt. Charles Edstaston: I really am most awfully grateful.
  • Catherine: I didn't know they did this sort of thing in England.
