Quote context

- I was all alone at the cemetery. I followed the custom of your people... a handful of earth on the body, and flowers to make him feel at home in such a strange place.

- It is hard not to be able to go down to say goodbye to your friend on his last journey.

- Oh, Pepe. I know how you feel.

- You are a prisoner in the Casbah. But a day will come when they will not be able to prevent your leaving. You will go out of the Casbah in spite of them all.

- I'll get out whenever I wish!

- And when you go, you will go quietly... the way Pierrot went. Feet first.

- Sure. Come on, Pepe. Sit down.

Top rated lines from this movie

I don't like traveling. Makes me homesick. If I can't see the same old streets when I open my eyes in the morning, I want to go right back to sleep.
Oh, yes, my dear. Your hotel bores me. The headwaiter looks like an undertaker and every time I step into this apartment it looks more like a funeral parlor.
You're so quiet. -I'm looking at you. I can't speak when I do that.
They can't keep me here! I'm free! Free to go! I'm sick of it! All of you. I'm sick of listening to you. And I'm sick of looking at you.
Nice friends you have. -In business, one cannot choose.
