Quotes
-
Eugéne François Vidocq : There's no fool so dangerous as a fool with brains.
Loretta : Except a woman so foolish as to fall in love.
-
Loretta : Really, I... I should call the police.
Eugéne François Vidocq : Don't call them until I've bought you another hat.
Loretta : Another?... another hat? Well, I admit I'm not so rich that I can afford to throw them in the gutter. Hats don't grow on trees, you know!
Eugéne François Vidocq : I know that some of the latest fashions look as if they did.
-
Loretta : [to Vidocq] I must say you commit your crimes a la mode.
-
Loretta : Time has made you even more intriguing. Surely, you're conceited enough to realize no woman could ever forget you, or give you up.
-
Eugéne François Vidocq : I've had so many names, I'm afraid I don't remember the most recent one.
Loretta : Perhaps you'll refresh your memory by consulting the visiting card in your wallet.
Eugéne François Vidocq : My dear lady, after our visit to the hat shop, my wallet is empty.
Loretta : Is that all we mean to each other - an empty wallet?
-
Loretta : [to Richet] I don't have any more hats than you have silly disguises.
-
Loretta : Is the great detective trying to be funny, or have you really taken up peddling? Hmm. Not a bad idea. Perhaps you'd like me to accompany you on the streets with a harp doing, "Throw me a penny, I am sick, and my husband is a lunatic."
