Quotes 

• Jacques Savon : Oh, you Americans! You are so, uh... romantic. Now, someone looks, uh, cockeyed at you and immediately you think it's love. Well, I make a pass in fun with every woman I meet.

  Sally Rogers : Well, you haven't with me.

  Jacques Savon : Wait. Today is young.

  Sally Rogers : Well, I'm not. Let's go.

• Sally Rogers : Well, look, Jacques, why don't you tell Rob and Laura the truth and make them both happy?

  Jacques Savon : No, I think it will make them miserable.

  Buddy Sorrell : You mean you're not gonna tell 'em?

  Jacques Savon : Nope.

  Buddy Sorrell : But... Well, why not?

  Jacques Savon : Well, uh-h-h, Laura is a happily married woman - but, uh, she is a woman, and every woman has some, uh, secret memory, a memory that keeps her heart young and her soul warm on cold nights. Is it so?

  Sally Rogers : It is so.

  Jacques Savon : And I, uh, being a man...

  Sally Rogers : Oh, I'll buy that.

  Jacques Savon : I know that men need their illusions, too, and no man would like to discover that the, uh, attention that a beautiful woman once gave him was just the same attention she gave with every man. Right, Buddy?

  Buddy Sorrell : Yeah, don't... don't take away my dreams. After all, the government took everything else.
