Quotes 

• Warlock : She lunches every day in the cafeteria, invariably alone. Sometimes after lunch she goes to the Central Park Zoo and sketches lions for half an hour. Only lions, for God's sake! She never speaks to anybody, except a couple of the black girls in life class. They look at her sketches and she looks at theirs. Sorry old man, it's not very much to go on.

  The Whore : It's quite a lot.

• The Whore : Take your pick. The fat one's fantastic. She's yours for $15. You can have any of the other two for 10.

  Charles Rone : The Tillinger Foundation is planning an expedition.

  The Whore : Ah, bully for the Tillinger Foundation. The business at hand is more important. Thirty dollars says you can have them all.

  Charles Rone : The Highwayman expects you.

  The Whore : Plus, the Spécialité de la Maison, magic mushrooms. Now, let's make it - let's make it a sporting proposition, hmm? I'll toss you double or nothing, $60, or you can have the whole batch for free.

• The Whore : Elepteria, listen! Blast Gordita in the crotch! In the cojones! You hear?

• The Whore : I don't wish to go. I have a good thing here, trading on human weakness. I think I shall remain.

  Charles Rone : There's money involved. A great deal of money. $25,000 now.

  The Whore : No. Money can't budge me. The Whore of yesterday is dead.

  Charles Rone : Plus $100,000 on checking in to the Tillinger Foundation.

  The Whore : 125,000, eh?

  Charles Rone : It's too bad The Whore of yesterday is dead.

  The Whore : Chappie, you've just witnessed a resurrection.

• The Whore : Can you get me, say, five beautiful, young girls? We could be partners.

  Madam Sophie : I still don't know if...

  The Whore : We solved just the same problems quite easily in Prague. We made addicts of the girls.

  Madam Sophie : That is a sin.

  The Whore : A practical sin. It costs less money and makes them dependent on you, and it works.
