Both hands on the wheel, Mr. Jones, I'm a very nervous passenger.

Tell me Miss Trench, do you play any other games?
Sergeant, make sure he doesn't get away.
Scenes with James Bond
20 scenesI admire your courage, Miss...?
Trench. Sylvia Trench. I admire your luck, Mr...?
Bond. James Bond.
When did you say you had to leave?
Immediately... almost immediately.
James! Where have you been? I've been searching all over London for you. [Picks up phone] 007 is here sir.
Moneypenny! What gives?
Me, given an ounce of encouragement. You've never taken me to dinner looking like this. You've never taken me to dinner...
I would, you know. Only "M" would have me court-martialed for... illegal use of government equipment.
Flattery will get you nowhere - but don't stop trying.
Nice and light... in a lady's handbag.
Any comment, 007?
I disagree, sir. I've carried the Baretta for ten years, and I've never missed with it.
No, but it jammed on you last job, and you spent six months in hospital in consequence. When you carry a 00 number, you have a license to kill, not get killed. Furthermore, since I've been head of MI7 [sic - MI6] there's been a forty percent drop in casualties, and I want to keep it that way. From now on you carry the Walther... unless you'd rather return to standard intelligence duties.
No sir,I would not.
Walther PPK, 7.65 millimeter, with a delivery like a brick through a plate-glass window. The American CIA swear by them.
What should I say to an invitation from a strange gentleman?
You should say yes.
I should say maybe.
Good evening, sir.
It happens to be 3 a.m. When do you sleep, 007?
Never on the firm's time, sir.
Don't worry. I'm not supposed to be here either.
Are you looking for shells too?
No, I'm just looking.
One million dollars, Mr. Bond. You were wondering what it cost.
As a matter of fact, I was.
The Americans are fools. I offered my services, they refused. So did the East. Now they can both pay for their mistake.
World domination. The same old dream. Our asylums are full of people who think they're Naploeon. Or God.
I'm a member of SPECTRE
SPECTRE?
SPECTRE. Special Executive for Counter Intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge, Extortion. The four great cornerstones of power headed by the greatest brains in the world.
Correction. Criminal brains!
The successful criminal brain is always superior. It has to be!
I'm honored. Of course, I'd prefer the Revenge department. My first job would be to find out who killed Strangways and Quarrel.
That's a Dom Perignon '55, it would be a pity to break it.
I prefer the '53 myself.
Don't hesitate to ring if there's anything else you want. Anything at all.
Two air tickets to London?
Have you any idea what they'll do with us?
No idea. No door handles or windows, either.
It's a prison, then.
Mink-lined, with first-class service.
How can you eat at a time like this?
I'm hungry. We don't know when we'll get the chance to eat again. Here, take this. [whispering] Careful. The whole place is probably wired for sound.
I put a black widow spider underneath his mosquito net... a female, they're the worst. It took him a whole week to die. [Bond looks shocked] Did I do wrong?
Well, it wouldn't do to make a habit of it.
Ahoy, Mr. Bond! Ahoy, Mr. Bond!
Well, well. What's the matter? Do you need help?
Well, now that you're here, you'd better give us a tow.
Throw us your line.
I admire your courage, Miss...?
Trench. Sylvia Trench. I admire your luck, Mister...?
Bond. James Bond.

Where did you get that suit?
My tailor, in Savile Row.
Mine's from Washington. Felix Leiter, Central Intelligence Agency.
How did it happen?
I think they were on their way to a funeral.
