  Simon Templar : [narrating]  Venice, Queen of the Seas. City of romance and mystery. Where the great Casanova spent most of his time either in jail or the arms of another man's wife. And where one can breakfast with something like that. Now don't get any wrong ideas, I'm practically her uncle. Her father's my closet friend.

• Simon Templar : There's no need for you to come in, you know.

  Claudia : Ah, but if you get killed, who's going to pay my taxi?

• Simon Templar : You know, I underestimated you, Jed. I always thought you were a moron. You're smarter than that, you're just a cretin.

• Sally : I'm so glad you had business here, daddy whould never have let me come ahead of him on my own.

  Simon Templar : I should think so too, young thing like you, straight out of school, you'd get more than your bottom pinched over here, I can tell you.

• Claudia : This little girl, she really is little, huh?

  Simon Templar : She's only eightteen.

  Claudia : Eightteen? Is pretty big little!

• Claudia : Ah! I like your underpants.

  Simon Templar : Good, consider them yours.
