• Jean Raymond : What are you going to do now?

  Dr. Michael Hale : Sleep for a month, then find myself a job.

  Jean Raymond : Harley Street?

• Jean Raymond : When I first came here, I wanted to die. Is that very wrong?

  Prison Chaplain : Very natural.

  Jean Raymond : And then I knew that to live for somebody else was the finest thing in the world. And there isn't a single wretched person in the whole of this wretched place that hasn't helped me to understand that.

• Jean Raymond : You look wonderful. You smell so nice. It must be your hair cream or something. You get a very highly developed nose in here. It comes from - only smelling yellow soap and floor polish.

• Jean Raymond : Who is Mabel?

  Millie Williams, inmate : My best friend. My best friend that was, that is. We were inseparable ever since we were girls. And then suddenly she lost her head over old Harry Wicks. What she saw in the miserable old scarecrow was a mystery to me. But, he did have a nice little bit of money, which always adds to a man's charm, I suppose.

• Dr. Michael Hale : I flew over.

  Jean Raymond : What made you?

  Dr. Michael Hale : Because I'm a sentimental ass.
