- Sam Urdell: [to Harry when part of the old facade of the building is crow-barred off] This was the prime whorehouse of the East Side. A moment of reverence, please: fifty years ago, this was the very place I lost my cherry.
- Dave Quittle: [following Harry around tombstones until he's discovered] Harry, if I wanted you dead, do you think I'd be walking around here.
- Harry Hannan: [referring to the death note he's received] Wait a minute! Wait a minute! You mean there 's more than one of these?
- Richard Peabody: So I've been told.
- Harry Hannan: Then I'm not the only one?
- Richard Peabody: No, but don't despair. You have a distinction.
- Harry Hannan: What's that?
- Richard Peabody: [laughs nervously] You seem to be the only one still alive.
- Ellie Fabian: [Ellie looking unusually glamorous at a wine social] You look, huh, wonderful!
- Ellie Fabian: Well, sherry requires a certain effort, doesn't it?
