Quotes 

• Marcel : [as he and Lavond are on the run having escaped from prison]  I have work to do. I've dreamt only of my work.

  Paul Lavond : Well, my work is no "dream" - I've been awake for seventeen years!

  Marcel : But you have only hatred in your heart. My work will help the world to live!

  Paul Lavond : And my work will help three men die.

• Marcel : [referring to Lachna, the servant girl]  Malita, where did you get her?

  Malita : In a Berlin slum. She's an in-bred peasant half-wit. But I wanted no prying wits about me.

• Marcel : [explaining why he thinks shrinking people and animals is a good idea]  Lavond, my friend, millions of years ago the creatures that roamed this world were gigantic. As they multiplied, the earth could no longer produce enough food. Think of it, Lavond: every living creature reduced to one-sixth its size. One-sixth of its physical need. Food for six times all of us!

• Marcel : Malita, get the big dog!
