Quotes 

• Capt. Schultz : But what if he doesn't talk?

  Colonel Ehrhardt : Then we try a little physical culture.

• Joseph Tura : [disguised as Professor Siletsky]  Here the whole Gestapo has been working for a long time, day and night, trying to find out every little thing about everybody. And I arrive and in a few hours I find the most attractive lady in town.

  Capt. Schultz : Oh, you didn't know Madame before?

  Joseph Tura : Oh, well, no, not exactly. But, the explanation is very simple. You see, I just asked Mrs. Tura, here, to deliver a message to her. Isn't that right?

  Maria Tura : Yes. Yes!

  Joseph Tura : You see, there's a young flyer, a very good friend of the Turas and, particularly, of Mrs. Tura. Isn't that right?

  Maria Tura : Well, yes, but, he's no particular friend of mine.

  Joseph Tura : Nevertheless, a friend. It was a sort of a code message.

  Capt. Schultz : Code message?

  Joseph Tura : Oh, Mrs. Tura has nothing to hide from the Gestapo. But, she has one tiny little secret. If her husband ever found out he would murder her. By the way, he is that great, great Polish actor, Joseph Tura! You've probably heard of him.

  Capt. Schultz : Ah, no, I haven't.

• Capt. Schultz : There are several things we want to find out, Mrs. Tura.

  Maria Tura : Of course, but, couldn't I see you tomorrow at your office?

  Capt. Schultz : No! I'm sorry. It is very urgent! The Colonel and I, we were talking things over. Mrs. Tura, we consider you a woman of enormous appeal.

  Maria Tura : Well, thank you. But, what's so very urgent about that?

• Colonel Ehrhardt : Schultz! What are you trying to get me into now?

  Capt. Schultz : But, Colonel, it was your own idea.

  Colonel Ehrhardt : Shifting the responsibility on me again? Good night, Schultz!
