Gloria De Vadnuz : Oh, shut up! Tonio Costa's a great singer, a fine gentlemen and one of my *most* intimate friends.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Tonio, my darling, I wish you'd seen me out there. I was fighting for you like a tigress - one helpless woman against a thousand beastly music lovers.
-
Tonio Costa : Where were you this morning?
Gloria De Vadnuz : What time?
Tonio Costa : When the plane left London.
Gloria De Vadnuz : Tonio I know this looks very bad, but, I can explain everything. I was on my way to the airport and then...
Tonio Costa : Yeah, I know, you ran into a bus!
Gloria De Vadnuz : That was in Rio. This time it was Cartiers.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Don't worry darling. I'm going to help you. This time I want to hide you in my Palazzo in Venice. Remember how I kept you undercover last year in Mexico? Hmm?
Tonio Costa : I sure do. We were the only two people in Acapulco who didn't have a suntan. Lets go to Venice!
-
Tonio Costa : [to the bartender] Okay, just a nightcap. Whiskey and soda.
Gloria De Vadnuz : Make it two please!
Tonio Costa : No ice, for the Countess.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Aren't you a little bit surprised to see me here?
Tonio Costa : I expected you days ago.
Gloria De Vadnuz : That's why I didn't come sooner.
-
Tonio Costa : Are the boys still waiting outside?
Gloria De Vadnuz : Oh, the boys! I forgot them in Vienna. Tonio, what's the matter with you? You didn't expect me to go to the Opera without some escorts? Besides, three men together, nothing.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Tonio, darling, lets cut out this foolishness. Let's have some fun! I am going to give a party for you tomorrow. Just a few intimate friends. And then you come up to my villa.
Tonio Costa : You have a villa in Capri? Since when?
Gloria De Vadnuz : I don't know. I think I inherited it. I have nine bedrooms! How would you like to be my house guest?
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Hello, everybody! Isn't this a lovely party I'm giving? I'm so glad I could come.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Darling, isn't your husband coming for the weekend?
Slow Dancing Female Party Guest : No. He just left.
Gloria De Vadnuz : Lucky!
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Tonio! Tonio, you are late.
Tonio Costa : You forgot to tell me, we're not dressing.
Gloria De Vadnuz : Darling, in Capri, do like the Romans do.
-
Tonio Costa : And I thought you were inviting just a few of your most intimate friends?
Gloria De Vadnuz : But, darling, these are my most intimate friends: United Press, Associated Press, and Mr. Reuters. I just love to have my picture in the papers!
-
Tonio Costa : Do you happen to know the Bruckners?
Gloria De Vadnuz : Yes. She's such a pretty girl. Her Uncle is a great poet. I will have to read his book.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : [Repeated line] This is the moment I was waiting for all my life.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Tonio! Tonio, I hear you've fallen in love and not with me. How is that possible?
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : Tonio, I know you better than anybody else. You couldn't be serious about this love business.
-
Gloria De Vadnuz : [to the Judge] Signore Costa's a fine, respectable man. Since his early childhood, he was taught to be kind, honest and hard-working. He had only one ambition: to become a great singer. He's also a great lover! Oh! I mean of the fine arts.
-
Tonio Costa : That's my boat!
Gloria De Vadnuz : Darling, at least allow me to give you a lift on my yacht. These ferry boats are so crowded with people.
Tonio Costa : I know, but I've made an amazing discovery: I'm one of them. Ciao! Ciao.
Gloria De Vadnuz : Au revoir. Bon voyage.
