The Other Side of Midnight

Larry Douglas:
[dancing together] Are my medals cutting into your b*obs?

Catherine Alexander Douglas:
Shakespeare or Marlowe?

Larry Douglas:
Cathy, you have to know how I feel about you, especially when we dance so goddamn close.

Catherine Alexander Douglas:
Actually, maybe we should just sit down.

Larry Douglas:
[sitting down] I don't know why you're so annoyed. That's one of the nicest compliments a man could pay a woman.

Catherine Alexander Douglas:
Strange, but I feel you're the only man that can come up with it any time day or night.

Larry Douglas:
Only with you.

Catherine Alexander Douglas:
Oh yeah. What are you packin' there, a Louisville Slugger?

Constantin Demeris:
My family was very poor. My father was a stevedore. There were fourteen children, and we had to fight for our bread at the table. I was lucky; I was born with a talent for mathematics. I learned to quickly estimate the odds against me, and then I beat them. Some people encouraged me along the way. Others snubbed or cheated me, but in my heart there is an indelible record of each transaction. We all play God, but some of us are better-equipped for the role than others. You see, where most men go unpunished for the evil they do, I am in a position to make them pay. Call it justice, call it vengeance... it's all the same. Nor do I believe as it is in the Bible, "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth", but rather, a head for an eye and a heart for a tooth. A simple religion, but once people know that I practise it devoutly, they stay away from my eyes, and far away from my teeth.
