Quotes from Wait Until Dark

Roat: Did you know they wanted to kill me? I did. I knew even before they did. They were awful amateurs, and that's why you saw through them.
Susy Hendrix: I saw through you too.
Roat: No, not all the way, Suzy. Even now, not all the way. The lovely thing was the way I let them set it all up. All that silliness of meeting in the parking lot, the whole thing, they had comic book minds. So, I let them do it their way, right up to the very end. And then, topsy-turvy. Me topsy and them turvy.


Sam Hendrix: You're doing fine, just fine!
Susy Hendrix: [crying joyfully] Oh! Sammy!


Sam Hendrix: Susy, is that you?
Susy Hendrix: No, Batman!
