- That little poem you wrote in Mrs. Matuschek's guest book, you make that up yourself?
- It's sort of half and half. Half Shakespeare, half me. I just changed the lines around to suit the occasion. I made that last line rhyme with Matuschek, that's all.

- Well, I'm very sorry, sir, but it was not my fault.

- Well, whose fault was it? Mine?

- What's the matter with you, Kralik? You're my oldest employee. I do everything I can to show my appreciation. I ask you to my house.

- Well, I'm very grateful, sir.

- Well, you have a funny way of showing it.

- You know how much I value your judgment and on every occasion you contradict me. Whatever I say, you say, no.

- Alright, sir, from now on, I say, yes. Yes, Mr. Matuschek. Yes, Mr. Matuschek. Certainly, Mr. Matuschek. Yes, Mr. Matuschek.

Top rated lines from this movie

Well, True love is to be two, and yet one.-A man and a woman blended as angels. Heaven itself. That's Victor Hugo. He stole that.

Well, it's difficult to explain a man like him to a man like you. Where you would say, Black, he would say, White. Where you would say, Ugly, he says, Beautiful. And where you say, Old maid, he says... Eyes that sparkle with fire and mystery.

You see, I don't like him. I hate to spend a nickel on him. Still, I must give him a present. So I thought if I have to give him a present at least give him something he won't enjoy.

Now, wait a minute. You are the boss. That's right. But I am not going to be a yes man. No, sir. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to contradict you. I do like you!

I think it's romantic. -What's romantic about it? -Well, cigarettes and music. I don't know. It makes me think of moonlight and... cigarettes and music.
