Henchman: Looks like I'm not the only thorn in your side.
W. S. Bruhl: Yes, but you're my favorite thorn.

Dr. Knight: No bruises, no abrasions, but practically every bone in his body is broken.
Police Lt. Strickland: How'd it happen?
Dr. Knight: I find them dead - that's my job. You find out how they got that way. Good night! [He leaves]
Police Capt. Alton: There's one doctor that couldn't give me aspirin.

Susan Webster: Why can't I be like you, Scot?
Scot Webster: You are.
Susan Webster: No, Scot, you're different. You're happy. You've got your job at the post office, playing the organ here at church. Your life is full, secure.
Scot Webster: I know, sis, I know.
