- Oh, but that was long ago.
- Oh, you don't have to tell me.

Quote context

[...]

- You remember the last time you came to my house for dinner? I said that if things go well, I might take it easier and maybe by Christmas make you manager of the shop. Well, now I have to take it easier.

- Would you care to work for me again? After...

- No, don't even think about it, sir.

- Is it possible that I ever distrusted you? I hated you. I couldn't stand your presence anymore. That's how far jealousy can drive a man.

- No, but that's all over now, sir.

- When I, when I first got that anonymous letter, I laughed. I... My wife having secret rendez-vous with one of my employees. My wife! It's-it's..

- Oh, but how could you suspect me, sir?

- Well, you see, you were the only one of my employees who had been to my home, and you sent my wife flowers.

- Oh, but that was long ago.

- Oh, you don't have to tell me.

- But when that poison gets into a man's mind, it's-it's.. Just try to understand.

- I do understand, sir.

- Here. Here are the keys to Matuschek and Company.

- Thank you, sir.

- What shall I do about Mr...

- Vadas? Well, I want him dismissed as quietly as possible. No, no scandal. Don't even mention the subject to him. We won't lower ourselves.

- Very good, sir.

- And this is going to be the biggest Christmas in the history of Matuschek and Company.

- I know it will.

- Yes, sir. Goodbye.

- Well, now that you're the boss, if you want to give yourself a raise...

- Well, sir, I'll talk it over with myself and if I don't ask for too much money I'll give it to myself. Thank you, sir.

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.
