• Alan Thurston : Now we both go to earth. Feel like a climb? Know where you are?

  Susan Foster : The Casbah.

  Alan Thurston : That's it. The haunt of vice, the lair of criminals, the hideout of every thief and murderer in Algiers. I've lived here as safely as if I were in London.

  Alan Thurston : The Star-Spangled Banner! Doesn't it make you feel proud?

  Susan Foster : Mmmm! It's like the end of a movie. When you take my face in your hands, and you put your nose within an inch of my nose, and the camera comes up in a great big close-up, and we kiss, and they play God Save the King...

• Susan Foster : Do you know, I think I believe you.

  Alan Thurston : That's decent of you.

  Susan Foster : You wouldn't be flattered if you knew the reason why.

  Alan Thurston : Alright, I'll buy. Why?

  Susan Foster : No-one but a Britisher would be seen dead in such a darn silly moustache!
