The African Queen
1951
Charlie Allnut: Well I ain't sorry for you no more, ya crazy, psalm-singing, skinny old maid!
Charlie: We can't do that! Rose: How do you know? You never tried it. Charlie: Well, yeah, but I never tried shooting myself in the head neither.
Charlie Allnut: I don't know why the Germans would want this God-forsaken place. Rose Sayer: God has not forsaken this place, Mr Allnut, as my brother's presence here bears witness.
Charlie Allnut: How'd you like it? Rose Sayer: Like it? Charlie Allnut: White water rapids! Rose Sayer: I never dreamed... Charlie Allnut: I don't blame you for being scared - not one bit. Nobody with good sense ain't scared of white water... Rose Sayer: I never dreamed that any mere physical experience could be so stimulating!
Charlie Allnut: A man takes a drop too much once in a while, it's only human nature. Rose Sayer: Nature, Mr Allnut, is what we are put in this world to rise above.
Captain of Louisa: By the authority vested in me by Kaiser William II, I pronounce you man and wife. Proceed with the execution.
Rose: Dear?... Dear?... What is your first name?
Charlie Allnut: (skitting Rose) Can you make a torpedo? Well do so Mr Allnut.
