Pierce Brosnan: Remington Steele

Quotes 

• [while looking at a Pitkin painting] 

  Remington Steele : Molly Donavan paid money for this woman's work?

  Laura Holt : For an expose.

  Remington Steele : Exposing what? Shocking lack of talent?

  Laura Holt : I didn't know you had such definite opinions about... art.

  Remington Steele : Laura, must I remind you that only a couple of years ago I was appropriating some of the finest works in Europe.

  Laura Holt : I do my best to forget that.

• Remington Steele : [to Laura]  I'll admit I've been trying to lead you astray... but this is not the direction I had in mind.

• [At the main entrance to the Conant Art Gallery] 

  Laura Holt : Do you think you can penetrate this bastion of culture alone?

  Remington Steele : Oh of course. Laura you've changed my life. I'm actually looking forward to going through the front door.

• Remington Steele : I'll wager there's a hefty finder's fee for each of these little beauties.

  Laura Holt : Mr. Steele is very big on finder's fees.

• Richard Walker : You seem awfully up, Miss Holt.

  Laura Holt : Why shouldn't I be? Mr. Steele's opened up a whole new aspect of our work for me.

  Richard Walker : Stealing?

  Laura Holt : I prefer to think of it as... purloining.

  Richard Walker : Even though it's in a good cause, should you be quite so happy about it? I mean, you are a private detective.

  Laura Holt : Believe me, after a while it gets just as predictable as any other job. Find a body, find some clues, find the killer.

  Remington Steele : Oh, yes, by the time noon rolls around we're watching the clock like everyone else.
