Quotes:

[from trailer]::David Frost: Are you really saying the President can do something illegal?::Richard Nixon: I'm saying that when the President does it, it's *not* illegal!::David Frost: ...I'm sorry?

[from trailer]::David Frost: Why didn't you burn the tapes?::Richard Nixon: I didn't want to take any questions on Watergate!

[from trailer]::David Frost: I've had an idea for an interview: Richard Nixon.::John Birt: You're a talk show host. I spent yesterday watching you interview the Bee Gees.::David Frost: Weren't they terrific?

[from trailer]::Richard Nixon: Why would I want to talk to David Frost?::Swifty Lazar: I've got half a million dollars.::Richard Nixon: Really?

Bob Zelnick: [Doing his Nixon impersonation] That Jack Kennedy, he screwed anything that moved. He had a go at Checkers once, and that poor bitch was never the same after that.

Richard Nixon: That's our tragedy, you and I Mr. Frost. No matter how high we get, they still look down at us.::David Frost: I really don't know what you're talking about.::Richard Nixon: Yes you do. Now come on. No matter how many awards or column inches are written about you, or how high the elected office is, it's still not enough. We still feel like the little man. The loser. They told us we were a hundred times, the smart asses in college, the high ups. The well-born. The people who's respect we really wanted. Really craved. And isn't that why we work so hard now, why we fight for every inch? Scrambling our way up in undignified fashion. If we're honest for a minute, if we reflect privately, just for a moment, if we allow ourselves a glimpse into that shadowy place we call our soul, isn't that why we're here? Now? The two of us. Looking for a way back into the sun. Into the limelight. Back onto the winner's podium. Because we can feel it slipping away. We were headed, both of us, for the dirt. The place the snobs always told us that we'd end up. Face in the dust, humiliated all the more for having tried. So pitifully hard. Well, to *hell with that*! We're not going to let that happen, either of us. We're going to show those bums, we're going to make 'em choke on our continued success. Our continued headlines! Our continued awards! And power! And glory! We are gonna make those mother fuckers *choke*!

Richard Nixon: Whenever I have had my doubts I remembered the construction worker in Philadelphia because he came up to me and he said 'Sir I got only one criticism of that Cambodia thing; if you'd gone in earlier you might've captured the gun that killed my boy three months ago'. So you're asking me do I regret going into Cambodia?... No, I don't. You know what, I wish I'd gone in sooner. And harder!

Richard Nixon: I let them down. I let down my friends, I let down my country, and worst of all I let down our system of government, and the dreams of all those young people that ought to get into government but now they think; 'Oh it's all too corrupt and the rest'. Yeah... I let the American people down. And I'm gonna have to carry that burden with me for the rest of my life. My political life is over.

James Reston, Jr.: You know the first and greatest sin of the deception of television is that it simplifies; it diminishes great, complex ideas, stretches of time; whole careers become reduced to a single snapshot. At first I couldn't understand why Bob Zelnick was quite as euphoric as he was after the interviews, or why John Birt felt moved to strip naked and rush into the ocean to celebrate. But that was before I really understood the reductive power of the close-up, because David had succeeded on that final day, in getting for a fleeting moment what no investigative journalist, no state prosecutor, no judiciary committee or political enemy had managed to get; Richard Nixon's face swollen and ravaged by loneliness, self-loathing and defeat. The rest of the project and its failings would not only be forgotten, they would totally cease to exist.

Richard Nixon: You know those parties of yours, the ones I read about in the newspapers. Do you actually enjoy those?::David Frost: Of course.::Richard Nixon: You have no idea how fortunate that makes you, liking people. Being liked. Having that facility. That lightness, that charm. I don't have it, I never did.

Quotes:

[about to give a tribute to Dudley Moore on "This Is Your Life"]::Alan Bennett: They wanted a glowing accolade. But I said "No. I'll do an amusing anecdote" - because glowing accolades tend to sound so insincere.::Peter Cook: ...Especially when they are.

Peter Cook: The BBC want another series.::Dudley Moore: Oh good. I'll make it up, you write it down, take all the money, take all the credit, then turn up drunk, and I'll make it all up again.

[Peter discovers Dudley shagging a young woman in his dressing room when he should be getting ready to go on stage]::Peter Cook: If you *do* decide to come on stage, Dudley, make sure you take her off your penis first.

Dudley Moore: Is my entire contribution to this show going to consist of my humiliating myself?::Peter Cook: No, Dudley. We'll do that for you.::Dudley Moore: Thank you. I wouldn't want to be appreciated or anything.::Peter Cook: Well, we initially tried looking up to you, Dudley... but when we did, we invariably found ourselves looking down.

Eleanor Bron: Sorry, sir. The club's full.::Upper Class Man: But I have an invitation. Do you know who I am?::Peter Cook: [to the people in the queue] Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen. May I have everyone's attention for a moment? This gentleman doesn't seem to know who he is. If anyone here recognises this man, can you come to the front of the queue and tell him his name.::Upper Class Man: Fuck you!::Peter Cook: You'll have to queue for that, too, I'm afraid, sir. There's a £5 waiting list.

Dudley Moore: Why do you constantly belittle me?::Peter Cook: Dudley, I don't think it's possible to belittle a club-footed dwarf whose only talent is to play Chopsticks in the style of Debussy.

Wendy Snowden: Everything happens for a purpose. Go with the flow.::Peter Cook: I've enjoyed the plughole immensely. I can't wait for the drain.::Wendy Snowden: It's really weird that this has happened when it has. I'm pregnant.::Dudley Moore: I think that was the U-bend, Pete.

Dudley Moore: You have a generous heart.::Peter Cook: I do have a generous heart. I have a very generous heart. I recently caught it trying to give my liver to a wino.

Dudley Moore: Are you allergic to compassion?::Peter Cook: Only in suppository form.

[1978: sketch prompted by the recent death of Pope John Paul I]::Peter Cook: Hello, mother.::Dudley Moore: [falsetto] Hello, son.::Peter Cook: Did you go to the Pope's funeral?::Dudley Moore: [falsetto] Yeah, I did. It was lovely.::Peter Cook: The way they laid out the Pope was beautiful.::Dudley Moore: [falsetto] Oh yes, son.::Peter Cook: Looking at that dead Pope gave me the horn.::Dudley Moore: [falsetto, shocked] No!::Peter Cook: Yeah, I got so horny seeing him lying in state, I had to have a wank.::Dudley Moore: [corpses]::Peter Cook: Yeah. I came all over the Pope - right across his face.::Dudley Moore: [corpses]
