The Merry Widow
1934
Count Danilo: Are you pretty? Or beautiful? Sonia: Gorgeous.
Ambassador Popoff: Have you ever had diplomatic relations with a woman?
Danilo: I'm a soldier. My duty is to fight. I'm willing to die on every battlefield. But I'm not going to drink another cup of coffee!
King Achmet: So they're blaming me, huh? Valet: For everything. They're even telling jokes about your majesty. King Achmet: Are they funny? Valet: No. King Achmet: That's bad.
Sonia: There's a limit to every widow.
Captain Danilo: You're the freshest Fifi I've ever met. Sonia: But a nice Fifi. Captain Danilo: How nice? Sonia: Not too nice. Captain Danilo: Your right eye says yes, and your left eye says no. Fifi, you're cockeyed!
Ambassador Popoff: Adamovitch. Adamovitch: Yes, your excellency? Ambassador Popoff: Go to my bedroom. In the cabinet, behind his majesty's picture, is a little brown bottle of poison... Throw it away. It's a protective measure.
(Presenting a dog to the courtroom) Prosecuting Attorney: Exhibit 2, please. Now, generals of the jury, I will prove with this exhibit... Defense Attorney: Your honor, I object! I object to having this witness called an exhibit! Prosecuting Attorney: She IS an exhibit! Defense Attorney: He's a witness! Prosecuting Attorney: She is not! Defense Attorney: He is! Judge: Objection sustained. From now on, the prosecution will refer to Exhibit #2 as Witness #1.
King Achmet: Now tell me, if you weren't married... if you weren't my wife, could you fall for Gabrielovitsch? Queen Dolores: If I weren't married... if I had it to do over again, and had the choice between you and Gabrielovitsch? Frankly, I'd take you. (King Achmet laughs contentedly) Queen Dolores: That shows you what I think of Gabrielovitsch.
Queen Dolores: Put Gabrielovitsch and Sienkovitsch together, and what have you got? Gabrielovitsch and Sienkovitsch.
