From Appointment with Danger, with Alan Ladd as a federal postal inspector:

Another postal inspector to Ladd- "You've been chasing hoodlums so long, you don't know how to treat ordinary people. Warm up, will you?"

Ladd- "Sure, I'll fall in love for you."

Postal inspector- "I don't think you could, because you don't know what a love affair is."

[Bourbon Guy]

Fascinating thread. Very revealing as to the posters. I won't even begin to try to figure out my own. Here are mine:

From Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, the BBC production, Peter Guillam quoting Smiley back to himself:

"Reason as logic? Or reason as motive? Or reason as a way of life? They don't have to give me a reason. I can write my own damn reason." I thought that was pretty impressive for someone who'd drunk as much as you had.


From A Man for All Seasons, Sir Thomas Moore to William Roper:

Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast. Man's laws, not God's! And if you cut them down,…and you're just the man to do it,… do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law, …for my own safety's sake!


From The Maltese Falcon, Sam Spade to Wilmer:

Six, two and even they’re selling you out, Sonny.
