Christine Radcliffe : Oh, you swine!
Alexander Hollenius : That is a very coarse expression, coming from so smartly dressed a young woman. I am referring to that handsome coat.
Christine Radcliffe : [she throws her fur coat at him] Take it back!
Alexander Hollenius : I seem to remember the dress, too!
Alexander Hollenius : [she glares; he holds up one hand, smirking] Restrain yourself, my dear. Jimmy might come in.

Christine Radcliffe : Oh, Alex - if I could only believe you.
Alexander Hollenius : That is a luxury beyond your present means, my dear. If you want to believe other people, you better give up lying yourself.

Alexander Hollenius : I gave you a great deal.
Christine Radcliffe : I know.
Alexander Hollenius : I wonder if you do. I'm not exactly a simple personality. They call me a great man... That's the loneliest animal in the world.
