Quotes of Movie: "A Nero Wolfe Mystery" Prisoner's B

  • Lieutenant Rowcliff:

    Archie Goodwin:
    You know, I've taken great pleasure in lying to you in the past and surely will lie to you again

  • Archie Goodwin:

  • Nero Wolfe:

He is also especially vulnerable to those young women who have the knack of stimulating his love of chivalry and adventure.

  • Bernard Quest:
    I have been in this company 62 years. In 1933, when I was made Vice-President by Nathan Eads, he promised me that one day I would be given a substantial share in the corporation. In 1942 he died, and when his will was read, I found he had broken his promise to me, and so I decided to kill his daughter Priscilla. She was 15 years old. I decided to strangle her.



    Viola Duday:
    [screaming] Bernie!



    Sarah Jaffee:
    [shocked] My God!



    Nero Wolfe:
    I even worked out the details - where to find a rope, how to employ it, what to do with afterward, and I practiced... I practiced by strangling myself.



    Nero Wolfe:
    [coughs while Wolfe nods in understanding] But that was ten years ago, and in the end, I finally came to my senses. I didn't kill her then and... Oh, what's the point? I'm too old, my children are grown, and I have everything I need.



    Nero Wolfe:
    [laconically] Oh, perhaps you should have stangled yourself.
