Quotes of Movie: A Scandal in Paris [1946]
|
Sometimes the chains of matrimony are so heavy they have to be carried by three. No man is a saint. There's no fool so dangerous as a fool with brains. Loretta: Except a woman so foolish as to fall in love. Women always surprise us by doing the expected. | |

Really, I... I should call the police. Eugéne François Vidocq: Don't call them until I've bought you another hat. Loretta: Another?... another hat? Well, I admit I'm not so rich that I can afford to throw them in the gutter. Hats don't grow on trees, you know! Eugéne François Vidocq: I know that some of the latest fashions look as if they did. [to Vidocq] I must say you commit your crimes a la mode. Only the heartless succeed in crime - as in love. Try to see further than the point of your knife. If I become chief of police, we'll have a chance to loot the city. Emile Vernet: Loot a city? What does that mean? Eugéne François Vidocq: Conservatively... fifteen million. Emile Vernet: Fifteen...? Eugéne François Vidocq: ...million... in gold. Emile Vernet: Where is it? Eugéne François Vidocq: In the vault of the Bank of Paris. Emile Vernet: Bank of Paris? Hmmmnnnn... Such a job! No! Too big for the two of us! Eugéne François Vidocq: Yes, but we can enlist the support of your dear family. Emile Vernet: Yeah, family!... Yeah, but we'll have to give them a cut. Eugéne François Vidocq: A small percentage. Emile Vernet: Nah... no percentage! Just a cut! Like most good men, I came from a poor but honest family - a little poorer than honest. The difference accounted for my being born in prison. Whenever poor mama expected another baby and consequently needed shelter, it was her custom to steal a loaf of bread and go to prison. She had stolen eleven loaves, served eleven sentences, and had eleven children, when to her misfortunes were added a twelfth. When poor mama went to a better world, leaving me to make the best of this one, what is more natural than that I should often return to the happy scene of my earliest childhood? In crime, as in love, there are only those who do, and those who don't dare. Within all of us is a saint as well as a dragon. | |
