Larry Lawrence
- Alex: Hey, boss, you ain't goin' upstairs, are ya? Where those ghosts is?
- Larry Lawrence: Listen, you stay there, and if a couple a fellas come runnin' down the stairs in a few minutes, let the first one go. That'll be me.
- Alex: If somebody passes you, that'll be me.
- Larry Lawrence: [about Alex] He always sees the darker side of everything. He was born during an eclipse.
- Larry Lawrence: No, my name is Lawrence.
- Mary Carter: Lawrence what?
- Larry Lawrence: Lawrence.
- Mary Carter: [in mocking/sarcastic tone] Lawrence Lawrence.
- Larry Lawrence: Yeah, and my middle name is Lawrence too. My folks had no imagination.
- Larry Lawrence: How'd you like the program?
- Telephone Girl: Oh, you were wonderful, if you're any judge.
- Larry Lawrence: Maybe you know what a zombie is.
- Mary Carter: A what?
- Larry Lawrence: Well, Parada just told me about a caretaker on Black Island. A negro woman, lives in a little shack with a zombie son.
- Geoff Montgomery: Yes, that's more voodooism, and not very pleasant. When a person dies and is buried, it seems there are certain voodoo priests who - who have the power to bring him back to life.
- Mary Carter: How horrible!
- Geoff Montgomery: It's worse than horrible because a Zombie has no will of his own. You see them sometimes walking around blindly with dead eyes, following orders, not knowing what they do, not caring.
- Larry Lawrence: You mean, like Democrats?
- Larry Lawrence: The girls call me Pilgrim, because every time I dance with one I make a little progress.
- Mary Carter: You may be a Pilgrim, but I can see you're no Puritan.
- Larry Lawrence: This is no penny ante game, Alex.
- Alex: Well, what are you gonna get out of it?
- Larry Lawrence: Heart failure.
- Raspy Kelly: He's drivin' his car, see? Another car comes along, runs him into a ditch. Marky gets all smashed up.
- Larry Lawrence: When did it happen?
- Raspy Kelly: Well, I can't tell you exactly, but it'll probably be tomorrow.
- [Alex jumps on the assailant in armor struggling with Larry and pulls off the assailant's helmet to see a disfigured man]
- Alex: [gasps] It's a zombie!
- Larry Lawrence: It ain't Baby Snooks!
- Parada: Are you the one advising Miss Carter to sell the castle?
- Larry Lawrence: No, my advice is keep the castle and sell the ghosts.
- Parada: I myself have heard of only one ghost: the spirit of Don Santiago.
- Larry Lawrence: Tell me, does he appear nightly or just Sundays and Holidays?
- [last lines]
- Francisco Mederes: He wasn't playing. That was the real ghost!
- Larry Lawrence: Now we have something to worry about on our honeymoon.
- Mary Carter: Our what?
- Larry Lawrence: Our honeymoon. Didn't I tell ya?
- Mary Carter: No, but I'd like to hear about it.
- Larry Lawrence: You would?
- Parada: I am simply doing my best to make clear to you that Miss Carter is taking her life in her hands if she goes into the castle tonight.
- Larry Lawrence: You know, that gives me an idea that scares me out of my wits.
- Parada: What?
- Larry Lawrence: I'll go there first.
- Parada: You are a brave man.
- Larry Lawrence: Me? No, my nerves are the break-away kind. I've got rabbit blood in me. Why, do you know what's liable to happen if I see a ghost there tonight?
- Parada: No.
- Larry Lawrence: I'd be so scared I'd probably take a shot at it... Won't I feel silly shooting ghosts?
- Larry Lawrence: Don't move, and above all, don' t scream. If there's going to be any hysterics around here, I'll have 'em!
- Larry Lawrence: [to Alex] Oh, you look like a black out in a blackout. This keeps up, I'm gonna have to paint you white.
