"Alexander Sebastian: [to Alicia] Many things have died for all of us. We mustn't let our spirit die with them. Perhaps I can help you to forget. I'd like to."

"John Huberman: You can put me away, but you can't put away what's going to happen to you and to this whole country. Next time, next time we are going to..."

"Mr. Devlin's been transferred to Spain...Well I guess he thought he was going stale here...I guess he thought he'd find Spain more interesting...Well, of course, it is more or less routine now."

"That sand that Devlin brought in shows uranium ore so now we know what we're driving at. And your job from now on will be to try to help us find out where that sand comes from."

"Now try to memorize the names of all the people you see there tonight. The men I mean. And get their nationalities. That's very important...And I suggest that you, uh, don't ask any questions. Just use your eyes and ears. They're a pretty keen and desperate bunch. Don't underestimate them."

"Gentlemen, I assure you, she's the perfect type for the job."

"[to Alex, while carrying Alicia] I'm taking her to the hospital to get the poison out of her...How'd you like your friends downstairs to know? They've yet to be told...You haven't forgotten what they did to Emil, have you Sebastian?...You've got your chance here and now. Tell them who she is."

"She wasn't drunk, she was sick. Maybe that's why she hasn't shown up. She looked like the ragged end of nowhere."

"I don't know if she'll do it...Well, I don't think she's that type of woman."

"[to Sebastian] Mr. Devlin has pestered me with his attentiveness ever since I arrived."

"I'm allergic to American agents. Their fine points don't particularly appeal to me."

"I don't know why I should feel so bad. When he told me a few years ago what he was, everything went to pot. I didn't care what happened to me. Now I remember how nice he once was. How nice we both were, very nice. It's a very curious feeling as if something had happened to me and not to him. You see, I don't have to hate him anymore or myself."

"[to Devlin] Go away and leave me alone. I have my own life to lead. Good times. That's what I want, and laughs with people I like. And no underhanded cops who want to put me up in a shooting gallery, but people of my own kind, who treat me right and like me and understand me."

"[to Devlin] Get out of my car, federal cop! Crashing my party, just like that buzzard with the glasses!"

"[to Devlin] You double-crossing buzzard - you're a cop!"

"I want to make it 80 and wipe that grin off your face. I don't like gentlemen who grin at me."

"I hate low, under-handed people like policemen, pussy-footing after you. Of course, I'm a marked woman, you know? I'm liable to blow up the Panama Canal any minute now."

"The important drinking hasn't started yet."

"The screen's top romantic stars in a melodramatic masterpiece!"

"Electric tension!"

"Deep their love! Great the risk!"

"Notorious woman of many desires! Fateful fascination! Bold intrigue!"

"We have naked people giving us free food!"

"Mariette Hartley - Jessie"

"Bruce Dern - Cliff"

"OK, Ralph, you know, I don't have to help you, but let me tell you something. If you flunk out and die in Vietnam, that's the end of our friendship, fuck you, you know."

"Kiefer Sutherland - Scott"

"Robert Downey Jr. - Ralph Carr"
