Lord Montague
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: You see, our family never have ideas; that's why they're so successful in politics, I suppose.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: If this fellow had had his way with me I don't suppose I'd ever have had another brandy and soda. That's a dismal thought, isn't it?... You know it hadn't ocurred to me before, but this brandy-and-soda business put it into my mind, that being dead must be rather like living in America, you know? It's a dry state.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: I haven't led a blameless life, but I at least I've never given any woman cause to kill me - that is, no more cause than most men give most women to kill them.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: There may be some fellows around who think that I'm not an ornament of society. But, then, I've had that same idea about myself at times.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: If you have such a thing around, I think that a brandy and soda might do me good.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: As I was crawling through the fog, just before I was attacked, you know, I heard an odd sort of tapping noise.
- Sir James Rumsey: Tapping noise?
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Yes.
- Sir James Rumsey: Well, can't you describe it more accurately than that?
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: No. I paid no attention to it at the time. It sounded as though it were getting louder, as if it were coming nearer to me, you know. It had a regular beat like - like the ticking of the alarm clock in stomach of Peter Pan's crocodile.
- Sir James Rumsey: This is hardly the time to discuss Peter Pan.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Oh, I don't know. Charming play.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: His ghost is distinguished from all other ghosts, by the fact that he's green.
- Sir James Rumsey: Green? I thought ghosts were always white.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Yes. All ghosts, but, our ghosts. You see, Sir Roger, the old wretch, died of some nasty disease like - spinach, which turned him quite green.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Vi, darling, I wish you'd try to arrange to raise your dead somewhere else. Will you?
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: I think we must be getting a little nervous.
- Sir James Rumsey: Nervous? I'm never nervous.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Aren't you? I am. I had too much soda, not enough brandy this morning.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague, Major McDougal, Capt. Dorchester, Lieut. Williams, Lieut. Savor, Major Endicott, Capt. Bradley: [singing] Here's the bowl of wine, Drink it down, Drink it down, Here's the bowl of wine, Drink it down, Drink it down, Here's the bowl of wine, It will make you feel so fine, Drink it down, Drink it down, Drink it down, Down, Down.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Don't you know that in Turkey only a married man can come to have a harem and in England only a single one.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Upon my word, you two seem to resent the fact that I'm still alive to shower my charm on an otherwise barren world.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: There are times in life when nothing stands between a man and marriage but an alias.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Will you let me tell you that you look very charming when you're awake and, that now, you look even more charming when you're almost asleep.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: At least, allow me to thank you for letting my - letting my eyes rest on you.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Are any of them up yet Frey?
- Frey - Lord Montague's Orderly: They're probably not, my Lord. Most of them left word not to be disturbed, until they called.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Well, I'm probably the early bird. I might catch a worm. If I should, Frey, you can eat it.
- Frey - Lord Montague's Orderly: Thank you. I've had breakfast.
- Sir James Rumsey: I'm a teetotaler, thank you.
- Lord 'Monte' Montague: Oh, you shock me. And you've such a nice, kind face, too. When did you take the veil?
