Quotes7

  • Helen Brent: I must warn you, though, liquor makes me nosy. I've been known to ask all sorts of personal questions after four cocktails.
  • Marty Waterman: s'all right. I've been known to tell people to mind their own business. Cold sober, too.
  • Marty Waterman: You can't just go around killin' people whenever the notion strikes you. It's not feasible.
  • Marty Waterman: And, Sam, in the mean time, no dames. Understand?
  • Sam Wilde: I've got a dame on my mind, and she's dead. And that's plenty for me.
  • Mrs. Kraft: How come you got a hold of this information?
  • Marty Waterman: Through underworld connections, like it says in the newspapers. I'm a bad boy.
  • Marty Waterman: And remember, glamour girl, I'll do this on just one condition.
  • Mrs. Kraft: What's that?
  • Marty Waterman: That you don't make any passes at me when you get me out there. I'm a very shy kid.
  • Marty Waterman: I've been scared somethin' like this would happen. The way you go off your head. And it's been worse, lately. Ever since that nervous crackup last summer. Honest, Sam, you go nuts about nothin'. Nothin' at all. You gotta' watch that. You can't just go around killin' people whenever the notion strikes you. It's not feasible.
  • Sam Wilde: [angrily] Why isn't it!
  • Marty Waterman: All right, Sam. All right. It is.
  • Marty Waterman: Don't get mad.
  • Helen Brent: I am getting mad. I resent people marching into something that doesn't concern them.
  • Marty Waterman: You think it doesn't. It concerns me all right, if it concerns Sam.
