- Frances Stevens: Even in this light, I can tell where your eyes are looking.
- [fireworks]
- Frances Stevens: Look, John. Hold them. Diamonds... The only thing in the world you can't resist. Then tell me you don't know what I'm talking about.
- [fireworks]
- Frances Stevens: Ever had a better offer in your whole life? One with everything?
- [fireworks]
- John Robie: I've never had a crazier one.
- Frances Stevens: Just as long as you're satisfied!
- [fireworks]
- John Robie: You know as well as I do: this necklace is imitation.
- Frances Stevens: Well, I'm not.
- John Robie: Say something nice to her, Danielle.
- Danielle Foussard: She looks a lot older up close.
- [John Robie whimpers]
- Frances Stevens: To a mere child, anything over twenty might seem old.
- Danielle Foussard: A child? Shall we stand in shallower water and discuss that?
- John Robie: You're here in Europe to buy a husband.
- Frances Stevens: The man I want doesn't have a price.
- John Robie: Well, that eliminates me.
- John Robie: [In reference to a beautiful villa they are visiting] Why don't you own a place like this?
- Frances Stevens: Palaces are for royalty. We're just common people with a bank account.
- Frances Stevens: I called the police from your room and told them who you are and everything you've been doing tonight.
- John Robie: Everything? The boys must have really enjoyed *that* at headquarters!
- Frances Stevens: I have a feeling that tonight you're going to see one of the Riviera's most fascinating sights.
- [pause]
- Frances Stevens: I was talking about the fireworks!
- John Robie: I never doubted it.
- Frances Stevens: The way you looked at my necklace, I didn't know...
- Frances Stevens: Doesn't it make you nervous to be in the same room with thousands of dollars worth of diamonds, and unable to touch them?
- John Robie: No.
- Frances Stevens: Like an alcoholic outside of a bar on Election Day?
- John Robie: Wouldn't know the feeling.
- Frances Stevens: Are you sure you were talking about water skis? From where I sat it looked as though you were conjugating some irregular verbs.
- John Robie: Miss Stevens?
- Frances Stevens: Yes, Mr. Burns?
- John Robie: You know what I think?
- Frances Stevens: About what?
- John Robie: You.
- Frances Stevens: I don't really care.
- Frances Stevens: I've never caught a jewel thief before. It's stimulating. It's like... It's like...
- John Robie: Like sitting in a hot tub?
- John Robie: Well, we only met a couple of minutes ago.
- Danielle Foussard: That's right, only a few minutes ago.
- Frances Stevens: Only a few minutes ago? And you talk like old friends... Ah, well, that's warm, friendly France for you.
