Quote context

[...]

- Did she have a drink at your house?

- Yes. She had a glass of ginger ale with a twist of lemon in it. It's known as a horse's neck. The glass is still on my desk, complete with fingerprints.

- I can assure you I didn't wash the dishes. I was too tired.

- You gave her $20. Quite a large sum for cab fare.

- Well, she'd given me valuable service.

- Was it two 10's?

- Yes. But, uh, don't ask me to identify the bills.

- Why didn't you call for a cab? Isn't that what a gentleman usually does under the circumstances?

- Oh, I didn't say I was a gentleman. I said I was tired.

- You're told that the girl you were with last night was found in Benedict Canyon, murdered, dumped from a moving car.

- What's your reaction? Shock? Horror? Sympathy? No. Just petulance at being questioned, a couple of feeble jokes.

- It's puzzling, Mr. Steele.

- Well, I grant you the jokes could have been better, but I don't see why the rest should worry you. That is, unless you plan to arrest me for lack of emotion.

- What else did she tell you about this fella she broke her date with?

- No more than I've already told you.

- Some more coming.

Top rated lines from this movie

It was his story against mine, but of course I told my story better.
I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me.
A good love scene should be about something else besides love. For instance, this one. Me fixing grapefruit, you sitting over there dopey, half asleep. Anyone looking at us could tell we were in love.
Oh, what a grip. That's from counting money.
Oh, I love a picnic. Acres and acres of sand, and all of it in your food.
