Quotes:

Marianne Möllendorf: Legally, we've been married ten years. Actually - just about a month. Very early, he told me I was one in a million. And I discovered he was telling the truth.

Eric Erickson: I'm curious. Ever since I met you, I've wondered what they have on you. The Allies, I mean. They've told me if I don't work for them, I lose my business.::Marianne Möllendorf: Oh, I see. Yes, I have something to lose too. If I don't help them I lose my self-respect.

Eric Erickson: Suddenly, he becomes your brother.

Eric Erickson: How does a person get to be so cold-blooded?::Collins: Watching German planes bomb London helps *enormously*!
