The Deadly Affair

Charles Dobbs:
How long are you staying?

Dieter Frey:
A few days. Business lunches, business dinners... I even have a business breakfast. Who knows? I might actually do some business too.

Charles Dobbs:
[to Ann about her nymphomania] I've never held your appetites against you. The unaddicted shouldn't blame the addicted.

Ann Dobbs:
[shouting] How can you be so aggressive about your job and so gentle about me? [Sobs]

Charles Dobbs:
I've always thought that... being aggressive was the way to... keep my job and being gentle was the way to keep you, [after a reflective pause] Well, I've lost my job, haven't I?

Bill Appleby:
I want to live to see the advisor eating his own vomit.

Bill Appleby:
Are you suggesting that Elsa might have connived in her husband's murder? That's rather a ghoulish thought, Charley.

Charles Dobbs:
She's had a rather ghoulish life.

Charles Dobbs:
[to Elsa] What kind of daydreams did you dream, Mrs. Fennan, that had so little of the world in them?
