Sibella: In Europe!

Sibella: What would you say if she asked you about me?
Louis Mazzini: I'd say that you were the perfect combination of imperfections. I'd say that your nose was just a little too short, your mouth just a little too wide.

Sibella: What a pretty speech.
Louis Mazzini: I mean it.
Sibella: [seductively] Come and say it to me again.

Inspector Valentine: No thank you.
Lady Warren: Or perhaps a glass of milk? The milkman seems to have left rather a lot today.
