North by Northwest

Les Tremayne as the auctioneer: "Would the gentleman please cooperate?"

Cary Grant as Roger O. Thornhill: "I know -- I look vaguely familiar."

Eva Marie Saint as Eve Kendall: "Yes."

Grant: "You feel you've seen me somewhere before."

Saint: "Mmm-hmm."

Grant: "Funny how I have that effect on people. It's something about my face."

Saint: "It's a nice face."

Grant: "Think so?"

Saint: "I wouldn't say it if I didn't."

Grant: "Oh, you're that type."

Saint: "What type."

Grant: "Honest."

Saint: "Not really."

Grant: "Good, because honest women frighten me."

Saint: "Why?"

Grant: "I don't know. Somehow they seem to put me at a disadvantage."

Cary Grant: "How do we know it's not a fake? It looks like a fake."

Woman: "Well, one thing we know. You're no fake. You're a genuine idiot."

Grant: "Thank you."

Cary Grant: "Who are you kidding? You have no feelings to hurt."

Cary Grant: "No getting rid of me, is there?"

Cary Grant: "Tell me... How does a girl like you get to be a girl like you?"

Eva Marie Saint: "Lucky, I guess?"

Grant: "No, not lucky -- naughty, wicked, up to no good... Ever kill anyone? Because I bet you could tease a man to death without half trying... So, stop trying."

Cary Grant: "Why are you so good to me?"

Cary Grant: "I used some pretty harsh words. I'm sorry."

Cary Grant: "Well, here we are again."

Eva Marie Saint: "Yes."

Cary Grant: "Has life been like that?"

Eva Marie Saint: "Mmm-hmm."

Grant: "How come?"

Saint: "Men like you."

Grant: "What's wrong with men like me?"

Saint: "They don't believe in marriage."

Grant: "I've been married twice."

Saint: "See what I mean?"

Cary Grant: "The moment I meet an attractive woman, I have to start pretending I've no desire to make love to her."

Eva Marie Saint: "What makes you think you have to conceal it?"

Grant: "She might find the idea objectionable."

Saint: "Then again, she might not."

Grant: "... Think how lucky I am to be seated here."

Saint: "Luck had nothing to do with it."

Grant: "Fate?"

Saint: "I tipped the steward five dollars to seat you here if you should come in."

Grant: "... Is that a proposition?"

Saint: "I never discuss love on an empty stomach."

Grant: "You've already eaten."

Saint: "But you haven't."

Les Tremayne: "I wonder if I could... respectfully ask the gentleman to get into the spirit of the proceedings here?"

Cary Grant: "I've had enough stimulation for one day."

Young woman, startled: "Stop!"

Cary Grant: "Oh, excuse me, I..."

Young woman, dreamily: "Stop..."

Grant: "Auhh-uhh-uhh!"

James Mason as Phillip Vandamm: "What possessed you to come blundering in here like this? Could it be an overpowering interest in art?"

Cary Grant: "Yes, the art of survival."

Eva Marie Saint: "Whose side are you on?"

Cary Grant: "Yours, always, darling."
