Gay Keane: Well, nice people don't go murdering other nice people.

Judy Flaquer: [about Mrs. Paradine] What's she really like?
Sir Simon Flaquer: Fascinating, fascinating. I'm an old ruin, but she certainly brings my pulse up a beat or two.

Judy Flaquer: The best men always end up with the worst women.

Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: I know why you wanted to see me - *she* sent you.
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: She? Mrs. Paradine doesn't even know that I'm here. She had nothing to do with it.
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: It seems I'm wrong then.
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: Why would she send me?
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: She might have her reasons.
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: I don't know what they might be.
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: But perhaps you don't know her as I do.
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: Mrs. Paradine is my client. I know her as her lawyer, that's sufficient for me.
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: You may not think it, but you're on the wrong side, sir, and I tell you so.
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: What so you mean exactly by that? You'd better make yourself clear.
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: Excuse me, sir. You have only known Mrs. Paradine since she is in prison. Is it not so?
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: Yes.
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: Then how can you know her? If you did, I should not need to tell you that only Almighty God or the black Devil himself knows what's going on in that head of hers.
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: I won't hear anything more against her.
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: I know what I'm talking about; what I say is true. I know her. And I will tell you one thing more, I will tell you about Mrs. Paradine - she's bad, bad to the bone! If ever there was an evil woman, she is one.
Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense: Would you mind getting out of here? I don't want any dirty, lying sneaks in my room. Get out!
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: Very good, sir, as you wish.
Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: [leaving] If you would allow me, sir, I'm very sorry for you - and God help you.

Andre Latour, Paradine's Valet: It was she who dragged us both down. I hated every moment with her, but God forgive me, I couldn't help myself!

Mrs. Maddalena Anna Paradine: I have nothing more to say to you, Mr. Keane. I loved Andre Latour... and you murdered him. My life is finished; it is you yourself who have finished it. My only comfort is the hatred and contempt I feel for you!

Mrs. Maddalena Anna Paradine: You are not to destroy him - if you do, I shall hate you as I've never hated a man.
