Quotes 

• Sir Frederick : You love Opera. I hate Opera. So, why shouldn't we go?

• Maria : What's worrying you? France?

  Sir Frederick : No. Yugoslavia. Dear, I hope you don't mind, I...

  Maria : Oh, that's alright, dear. I understand. I understand perfectly.

• Maria : I dreamt you were a great success at the League of Nations.

  Sir Frederick : Well, I was! Sweetheart, your husband defeated twenty-one nations!

  Maria : Oh, you must be worn out.

• Maria : [describing her dream]  I lost you in Paris. The next thing I remember we were here at home and you were beating me.

  Sir Frederick : What did you do?

  Maria : I'm afraid to tell you.

  [smiles] 

  Maria : I liked it. And then you started to kiss me.

  Sir Frederick : And you liked that too?

  Maria : Better than ever before. You carried me upstairs.

  Sir Frederick : And?

• Sir Frederick : Ah, you're an angel.

• Sir Frederick : Are you Poochie?

  Anthony Halton : Yes, Snookie.

• Sir Frederick : You know where he met her? At this Grand Duchess' Salon. You remember the novel, "An Afternoon in Paris"?

  Maria : Yes.

  Sir Frederick : Its undoubtedly the same kind of a place.

• Anthony Halton : Cleopatra wasn't Angel. If Caesar had ever met Angel, it would have changed the history of the Roman Empire.

  Sir Frederick : Yes, it probably would have collapsed 200 years earlier.

  Anthony Halton : Well, what are 200 years in history? Twenty-five pages. But, one hour with Angel...

  Sir Frederick : 60 minutes.

  Anthony Halton : 3,600 seconds.

• Sir Frederick : It's always ridiculous to reason with a man in love. And I'm afraid you are a man in love.

  Anthony Halton : I don't know. It may be more than love or less than love.

  Sir Frederick : Well, man, make up your mind. What is it?

  Anthony Halton : It's - it's a certain feeling. It's a secret that belongs to two people - and to those two people alone.

• Maria : That's marvelous. I can hardly believe it. You really let all Europe wait just to find out if a woman is a brunette.

  Sir Frederick : Or, a blonde.
