• Pat Brady : I was just saying, they'll never get the writers unionized. You know why? Because they hate each other's guts. They'd sell each other out for a nickel.

  Monroe Stahr : This man from New York seems pretty set on doing it, the one who's coming out to see me. What's his name?

  Fleishacker : Brimmer.

  Monroe Stahr : Brimmer.

  Pat Brady : Communist, yeah?

  Popolos : You mean a *real* communist?

  Pat Brady : Yeah, sure, a real one.

  Popolos : I mean, some of these guys are just jokers who call themselves communists. And mostly they are fairies, too.

• Popolos : This is the greatest country in the world. Everybody stands a chance in this country. There's not going to be a revolution. The only people who want a revolution are the Communists.

  Pat Brady : And the fairies.

  Fleishacker : What kind of a revolution do the fairies want?

  Popolos : A Communist one.

  Pat Brady : What else?

  Fleishacker : Do you think Stalin likes homosexuals?

  Popolos : Homosexuals, eh? Let me tell you something. You know "homo" is a Greek word. I come from Europe, I'm Greek.

  Pat Brady : That's why he knows so much about Stalin.

  Fleishacker : But Stalin ain't Greek.

  Popolos : You're damn right he ain't!

  Pat Brady : He's a fairy.

  Popolos : He's a bastard Communist Russian fairy, that's what he is!

• Pat Brady : You know who first told him you were a genius? Guess.

  Monroe Stahr : You.

  Pat Brady : Right.

  Monroe Stahr : Damn good of you, Pat.

  Pat Brady : Oh, no. If I admire a man, I say so. I want the whole world to know. Perhaps that's because I'm Irish. The Irish are a very warm-hearted people.

  Popolos : The Greeks are warm, too. I mean, try to find me a Greek communist. You couldn't find one.
