Sir Henry Carmel
- Adam Belinski: No, Sir Henry. I know Hitler.
- Sir Henry Carmel: Oh, yes, he's written a book, hasn't he?
- Adam Belinski: Yes.
- Sir Henry Carmel: Big success, isn't it?
- Adam Belinski: Very big.
- Sir Henry Carmel: Well, what more does he want? Why doesn't he lie down and keep quiet?
- Adam Belinski: Well, if you really want to know, Sir Henry, read the book.
- Sir Henry Carmel: Sort of an outdoor book, isn't it? What's it called? Oh yes, "My Camp".
- Sir Henry Carmel: Well, she needn't have dropped the platter and insulted my friend. What was it she said to you?
- Syrette: I remember very well, sir. It was, if I may take the liberty of repeating it, 'Nuts to the squirrels.'
- Sir Henry Carmel: Doesn't make sense!
- Adam Belinski: No, it doesn't. It should be 'Squirrels to the nuts.' But I have an open mind, and if someone says to me 'Nuts to the squirrels,' I accept it. You may be inclined to say that to me yourself some day, when you know me better - and I'm not so sure that you will include the 'squirrels.'
- Sir Henry Carmel: [shaking his head] That's much too deep for me.
- Sir Henry Carmel: You mean the beggar's broke?
- Andrew Carmel: Oh, you can't call a man broke just because he hasn't any money.
- Sir Henry Carmel: You mean to tell me young girls go in for plumbing nowadays?
- Cluny Brown: It's great fun, and it does everybody so much good.
- Sir Henry Carmel: By George, when I was a young man, we never even discussed plumbing. As a matter of fact, we didn't have any.
- Andrew Carmel: He's fighting for a new and better world?
- Sir Henry Carmel: What for?
- Andrew Carmel: What for? Haven't you heard of the Nazis?
- Sir Henry Carmel: Oh yes, German chaps. Always wanted to see one. Send him down, by all means.
- Andrew Carmel: Father, he isn't a Nazi. He's fighting the Nazis. He's a Czech. The Nazis are after him.
- Sir Henry Carmel: I say, Syrette, what's the fellow's name again?
- Lady Alice Carmel: It is hard to remember. So many foreigners do have foreign names, don't they?
- Adam Belinski: I have no dinner jacket, Sir Henry. I couldn't bear to face you in a lounge suit across the dinner table.
- Sir Henry Carmel: Well, uh, wore a lounge suit myself once at dinner - in Naples. Went slumming. Didn't want to shock the natives.
- Sir Henry Carmel: Well then, I'm glad Andrew's joining up. We Carmels have never shirked our duty. No Englishman has or ever will. We'll see this thing through. We'll show that blighter.
- Adam Belinski: It's good to see you angry, Sir Henry. Stay angry and everything will be all right.
- Sir Henry Carmel: What the devil are Belinskis?
- Andrew Carmel: What the devil are Belinskis? Oh, I give up... what are Belinskis?
- Sir Henry Carmel: But hang it all. It took me quite some time to learn to say Belinski. And now that I can say it. No, Adam, this is beastly selfish of you.
