You hate me for what I said?::Dave Bishop: No.::Dominique: He loved me once a long time ago.::Dave Bishop: How did you know?::Dominique: Women know these things.::Dave Bishop: Do they?::Dominique: Did you?

Dave Bishop: [Seeing Spring's switchblade knife close to his abdomen] I thought I was holding YOU!::Spring: A man's got to learn to protect himself in today's world. It's really a jungle, you know.

Spring: Somewhere we have known we have made tremendous progress.::Dave Bishop: [Shaving in the bathroom mirror] What makes you think so?::Spring: Because this morning I was ordered to kill you.::Dave Bishop: [Continuing to shave for a moment and then turning around] What did you say?::Spring: I was ordered to kill you.

We must meet cautiously, and we must travel cautiously.::Dave Bishop: I'm inclined to rely on your judgment in such cases.::Spring: The first mark of a talented amateur is that he respects the professional. Au revoir.::Dave Bishop: Au revoir.

Quotes:

Dennis Scott: I see: the scientists do the thinking for the world, and the rest of us just live in it, is that it?::Elspeth Honey: Yes.

Monica Teasdale: My gift to posterity is a few cans of celluloid on a junk heap someday.

Monica Teasdale: I would have stopped working a long time ago if I could have figured out what to do with myself.

Theodore Honey: I expect for the tail to fall off.

Monica Teasdale: The scientist says the plane is going to crash, the captain says it's not. Your vote doesn't count because you have to side with the captain which means it's a tie. [the propellers slow] What's that?::Marjorie Corder: He seems to be saving fuel.::Monica Teasdale: He wouldn't do that without a reason.

Monica Teasdale: He told me to sit on the floor in the men's room. If that's not an odd idea I'd like to meet one.::Marjorie Corder: I think he was just telling you the best place to be if there was an accident.::Monica Teasdale: At this altitude?::Marjorie Corder: I think he's right about it being the safest place.::Monica Teasdale: If he's right about that, he may be right about the tail falling off.

Elspeth Honey: [carrying a present from Monica] This is like Christmas, only more so.

Theodore Honey: It just folded up! It folded right up and sat down!

Monica Teasdale: We were going to take off, only he told them they shouldn't, and the lever was right there, he just pulled it. You've never seen such a commotion in your life. I guess a thing like that has never happened before in the history of the world.

Theodore Honey: Oh there'll really be a delay for everybody now won't there?::Marjorie Corder: I don't think there's any doubt about that. Tell me why...::Monica Teasdale: [enters] He did do it, didn't he?::Marjorie Corder: Yes I'm afraid he did.::Monica Teasdale: If you believe in something, you believe in doing something about it, don't you?::Theodore Honey: Well they wouldn't listen to me and the lever was right there so I just *keh* pulled it.::Monica Teasdale: That's sticking your neck out pretty far isn't it if you just thought it was going to crash?::Theodore Honey: I tried to get them to ground the airplane, they wouldn't listen to me and the lever was right there so I just, I...::Monica Teasdale: You just pulled it. Don't those things cost an awful lot of money?::Theodore Honey: Oh a tremendous amount of money! This is going to cause a good deal of trouble.::Monica Teasdale: I should think it might.::Theodore Honey: I don't know what they're going to do.
