George Brent: Captain Jeremy Bradford

Quotes 

• Pierre : [When the captain enters the kitchen and breaks up the staff singing]  We were just singing for fun.

  Captain Jeremy Bradford : And the passengers are just waiting for food.

  Pierre : [to the staff]  Don't stand there! Get wiggles on, all of you! Go on! Go on! Go on!

• Polly Bradford : I guess you might be quite provoked with me.

  Captain Jeremy Bradford : That's a pretty good guess. Why did you do it?

• Captain Jeremy Bradford : What sort of woman is she?

  Olaf Eriksen : A soprano.

• Captain Jeremy Bradford : I know from experience that half the women on this ship are running away from men and the other half are running after them.

• Polly Bradford : He wants to make up. She's not ready to yet. She won't answer the phone or talk to him or anything. But, he still keeps trying. Isn't it romantic?

  Captain Jeremy Bradford : Or, annoying.

• Captain Jeremy Bradford : You've disobeyed me. And not for the first time, either. Young lady, you need discipline!

• Captain Jeremy Bradford : She needs discipline. Very badly - for her own good. I know what I'm talking about.

• Zita Romanka : You are in loves with her, yes?

  Captain Jeremy Bradford : Oh, no, I've only known her a few hours.

  Zita Romanka : With love you know in a few minutes.

  [moves closer] 

  Zita Romanka : I do.

• Captain Jeremy Bradford : Excuse me.

  Olaf Eriksen : Such a busy Captain. Always going some place else.

  Zita Romanka : I would enjoy myself telling *you* where to go.

  Olaf Eriksen : I have been there.

• Captain Jeremy Bradford : Polly, you're becoming a pest.
