Quotes 

• Amanda : What the Sam Hill do you think you are doing? First you cannot get rid of me fast enough, then you barge in and drag me out of an interview for a perfectly good job, you say you are my husband, a lie which I do not find funny, and where do you think you are taking me?

  Lee : We're getting married.

  Amanda : That's asking too much.

• Francine Desmond : So, how is married life treating you, huh? Dinner at six? Dishes at seven? TV until nine?

  Lee : Bed.

  Francine Desmond : Bed?

  Lee : You know, Francine... I hgained a lot of respect for the generocity and the... stamina... of the American housewife.

  Francine Desmond : You're disgusting.

• Lee : [points upstairs]  Are you coming?

  Amanda : No, I can't sleep here. How would I explain it? I feel like I was lying, and sneaking.

  Lee : You are lying and sneaking. You're working for the government.

• Lee : Where in my contract does it say that I have to make daiquiris? I hate this assignment; I want a divorce.

• Lee : Look, I have spent years operating in places like Morroko, Istanbul... I've mastered French, Dutch... a little Urdu, but what the heck do I know about everyday life?

• Billy Melrose : Not much to show for a man's life.

  Lee : Well, don't cry too hard, Billy. A gunrunner like LaMar is responsible for more widows and orphans than yellow fever.
