Rope

& Brandon: Nobody ever feels really safe in the dark. Nobody who was ever a child, that is.

& Brandon: I’ve always thought it was out of character for David to drink anything as corrupt as whiskey.
    Phillip: Out of character for him to be murdered, too.
    Brandon: Yes, wasn’t it? But good Americans usually die young on the battlefield, don’t they?

& Phillip: All right! You’re perfect.
    Brandon: We have to be, Phillip. We agreed there was only one crime either of us could commit. The crime of making a mistake. Being weak is a mistake.
    Phillip: Because it’s being human?
    Brandon: Because it’s being ordinary.

& Brandon: It’s only a piece of rope, Phillip. An ordinary household article. Why hide it?

& Brandon: Now the fun begins...

& Brandon: Rupert’s extremely radical. Do you know that he selects his books on the assumption that people not only can read, but actually can think?

& Rupert: Man’s honor was at stake. And personally, I think a chicken is as good a reason for murder as a blonde, a mattress full of dollar bills, or any of the customary, unimaginative reasons.
    Mrs. Atwater: Now, you don’t really approve of murder, Rupert, if I may?
    Rupert: You may, and I do.


& Rupert: Think of the problems it would solve. Unemployment, poverty, standing in line for theater tickets.
    Mrs. Atwater: I must say, I’ve had a perfectly dreadful time getting tickets for that new musical, what’s it called? You know. «The Something,» with what’s her name?

& Rupert: Oh, no, sorry. Knives may not be used on hotel employees. They are in the «death by slow torture» category. Along with bird lovers, small children, and tap dancers. Landlords, of course, are another matter.

& Phillip: Cat and mouse! Cat and mouse! Which is the cat and which is the mouse?

& Rupert: It’s odd the way one can pyramid simple facts into wild fantasies, isn’t it?

& Rupert: Brandon, I’m tired. And in a way, I’m frightened, too.

& Rupert: ...now I know that we are each of us a separate human being, Brandon, with the right to live and work and think as individuals, but with an obligation to the society we live in.

& Phillip: They’re coming.
