Mission to Moscow

Ambassador Joseph E. Davies:
Mr. Stalin, I believe history will record you as a great builder for the benefit of mankind.

Freddie:
So this is Russia, eh?

Railroad official:
Da, da.

Freddie:
Well, where's the caviar?

Railroad official:
You're eating some now in your bread.

Maxim Litvinov, Foreign Minister:
[to Davies] There is no security for any of us unless there's security for all.

Freddie:
Say, do you let girls ride with the engineer?

Railroad official:
She IS the engineer! [laughs]

Mikhail Kalinin, USSR president:
[to Davies] My favorite vice is American cigarettes.

Ambassador Joseph E. Davies:
I certainly didn't expect to find an American engineer here.

American Engineer in Russia:
They hired me two years ago, sir, to give them advice on installations, and I am anxious to get back to Texas.

Ambassador Joseph E. Davies:
Homesick, eh?

American Engineer in Russia:
I'd give a carload of caviar for just one good hot dog!

Mrs. Marjorie Davies:
How did you rest?

Freddie:
With one eye open.

Dr. Botkin:
...Those who work to save life cannot keep up with those who have the power to destroy.

Mr. Radek:
[to the prosecutor] Aside from sleeping I never in my life committed an undeliberate action.

Mrs. Marjorie Davies:
[to Madame Molotov] Well, I imagine that women are much the same the world over. They all want to please their men.

Freddie:
What I can't figure out if they're protecting us or watching us.

Ambassador Joseph E. Davies:
Maybe a little of both.
