Countess Lorenz : Can you bear to look at me now?
Dr. Lorenz : Of course. You are beautiful. And I shall always keep you that way.

Patricia Hunter : Oh, Professor, do you also make a hobby of collecting coffins?
Dr. Lorenz : Why yes, in a manner of speaking. I find a coffin much more comfortable than a bed. Many people do so, my dear. Is it so strange, that I accept one while waiting for eternal rest?

Patricia Hunter : So you found my bag in your truck?
Dr. Lorenz : Yes. There it is.
Dr. Foster : Miss Hunter's a newspaperwoman.
Patricia Hunter : I came here hoping you might grant me an interview.

Countess Lorenz : No one asked you to come here. You're not welcome!

Dr. Lorenz : Control yourself, my dear! I'm sure Miss Hunter meant no harm. Please forgive my wife, she is not well. Come, you had better retire.
