Quotes 

• Catherine : Oh, don't be so filthy polite. You know where I'd go if you'd ask me to.

• Kent Barringer : I thought we ought to understand each other.

  Catherine : Oh, I understand you much too well. I'm taking half a loaf because I know its all I'll ever get. You didn't suspect me of wanting more, did you Barry?

  Kent Barringer : I think its a safe rule to assume that the woman always wants all she can get.

• Kent Barringer : We'll drink to Florida - and nights of tropic love.

  Catherine : I see!

• Kent Barringer : Love is an illusion.

  Catherine : So I guess. All done with mirrors.

  Kent Barringer : Have another drink.

• Catherine : Oh, just one peek at her, please Barry.

  Kent Barringer : Nothing doing. I've got to write out her instructions: How to Dodge the Electric Chair in Six Easy Lessons.

  Catherine : You better let me see. It might come in handy. You know, someday I might get desperate and blow your brains out.

  Kent Barringer : Always at your service, my sweet.

• Catherine : What was she like?

  Kent Barringer : [stands up and aggressively kisses Catherine]  She was like you, darling. A charming, cheating little chiseler.

• Catherine : You don't have to believe me - about anything.

  Tony Perez : Oh, I didn't mean that, honey. But, after all, you can't blame me! What do I know about you? If your taxi hadn't bumped into my car that night, I never would have known you at all. You never loosened up to me. And I know you can't live in a joint like this for nickels and dimes. I never see a guy around and now you keep stalling me off. Well, naturally I wonder what the layout is.

• Catherine : Just a minute, I want to powder my nose.

  Tony Perez : Is that all you're gonna do?

  Catherine : You wanna come and see?
