Robert Douglas: The Unknown Man

Quotes 

• The Unknown Man : Tell me honestly. Do you still think it's great fun in having money?...

  Jane Benson : I'm not sure.

• The Unknown Man : When you have as much money as we have, you can't have friends, loyalty or anything.

• The Unknown Man : Money's a curse.

• Jane Benson : Won't you tell me your name?

  The Unknown Man : Why should I? I haven't asked your name.

• Jane Benson : Why'd you ask me to come here?

  The Unknown Man : To warn you. Now listen, hey you. I know who you are and what you are and what your friends are. You came here to make a fortune in gambling or otherwise. Well, give it up. Go home. Go back to your little town or village.

  Jane Benson : Why?

  The Unknown Man : Because money isn't worth what you have to give for it. It's terrible to be rich.

  Jane Benson : Is it really, now? Why?

• Jane Benson : You know, I never should be dancing with someone I don't know.

  The Unknown Man : You should always dance with someone you don't know.

• The Unknown Man : My poor child. You're doomed for gigolos the rest of your life.

  Jane Benson : I hate you.

• Jane Benson : Then you have more money than I have?

  The Unknown Man : Yes, I'm even worse off than you are.

• The Unknown Man : Maybe you're right. Money has poisoned me. But what can I do, with detectives to guard me on one side and women who fleece me on the other. It's no wonder I lost all faith in human nature.
