Quotes:
Lola Medina: I've heard that you do... drink.::Matt Helm: Just call it a hobby.
Count Massimo Contini: Actually, I would have preferred to live in a different century, Florence in the 13th or Germany in the 18th. Wouldn't you, Mr. Helm?::Matt Helm: No, it'd be all wrong. I'd be dead by now.
Freya Carlson: [After falling into a deep pond] It's too deep.::Matt Helm: Too deep, huh? [She nods] I wanna ask you a question. Whose side are you on?::Freya Carlson: Well, I'm an agent. And I also happen to be a good one. And I'm also a woman! [She storms away]::Matt Helm: It *was* the wig.
Count Massimo Contini: Ten seconds behind schedule.::Linka Karensky: Is that catastrophic?::Count Massimo Contini: Yes. I deplore sloppiness.
Matt Helm: [to the tune of 'The Sunny Side of the Street'] Grab your coat, get your pale, let me take you in the barn, dear. Just sit back and watch, 'cause I found a cow who gives scotch.
'Mac' MacDonald: [about Linka] And remember, she's about as gentle as a barracuda.
'Mac' MacDonald: [showing a new explosive device] It's so new we don't even have a name for it yet.::Matt Helm: [throws the handkerchief to a safe distance, where it explodes upon hitting the ground] Why don't we call it a little bit of hanky panky?
Matt Helm: Half a bottle is better than none.
Lola Medina: I'm a gypsy, Mr. Helm. My father was a gypsy. And he taught us one thing: wise men enjoy pleasure before business.
Count Massimo Contini: In our civilized business, this is the traditional time to offer you a cigarette or some liquid refreshment, perhaps. But since we are professional people on limiting time schedules, I suggest that we dispense with such amenities.::Matt Helm: Oh, no, let's not dispense with any of those things.
