Quotes 

• Fritz Wendel : Do you know what she has done to me? It's terrible! She has turned me into an honest man.

• Sally : I saw a film the other day about syphilis. Ugh! It was too awful. I couldn't let a man touch me for a week. Is it true you can get it from kissing?

  Fritz : Oh, yes. And your king, Henry VIII, got it from Cardinal Wolsey whispering in his ear.

  Natalia : That is not, I believe, founded in fact. But from kissing, most decidedly; and from towels, and from cups.

  Sally : And of course screwing.

  Natalia : Screw-ing, please?

  Sally : Oh, uh...

  [thinking] 

  Sally : fornication.

  Natalia : For-ni-ca-tion?

  Sally : Oh, uh, Bri, darling, what is the German word?

  Brian Roberts : I don't remember.

  Sally : [thinking]  Oh... um... oh yes!

  Brian Roberts : Oh, no...

  Sally : Bumsen!

  Natalia : [appalled]  Oh.

  Brian Roberts : That would be the one German word you pronounce perfectly.

  Sally : Well, I ought to. I spent the entire afternoon bumsening like mad with this ghastly old producer who promised to get me a contract.

  [pause] 

  Sally : Gin, Miss Landauer?

• Brian Roberts : How's the, uh, gigolo campaign going?

  Fritz Wendel : Terrible. This week, already I'm giving up three dinner invitations to spend thirty-two marks on her.

  Brian Roberts : That's quite a sacrifice.

  Fritz Wendel : And here's the craziness: I like it. God damn it!

  Brian Roberts : What?

  Fritz Wendel : I think I'm falling in love with her.

  Brian Roberts : Oh, I'm so sorry.

  Fritz Wendel : So am I.

• Brian : Sally is rather knowledgeable in these areas.

  Fritz : You do what Sally says, you end up I think in prison.
