James Bond
[Bond being left by Tracy on the beach]

This never happened to the other fella!

James Bond
[Bond is secretly asking Draco for assistance]

I'd like to interest you in a demolition deal that requires certain aerial activity to install equipment.

James Bond
[after Blofeld hits a tree]

He's branched off.

James Bond
[Tracy has just been shot and killed]

It's all right. It's quite all right, really. She's having a rest. We'll be going on soon. There's no hurry, you see. We have all the time in the world.

Scenes with James Bond

13 scenes
Sir Hilary Bray

Our methods are very exacting. We never like to speak until we're absolutely certain that there can be no possibility of error on our side or... forgery on anyone else's.

Bond

I hope I can live up to your high standards.

Merry Christmas, 007.

Bond
[as Hillary Bray]

I'm Sir Hillary Bray.

No no no, Mr. Bond. Respectable baronets from the College of Heralds do not seduce female patients in clinics. On the other hand, they do get their professional details... right. The De Bleauchamps tombs are not in the Augsburg Cathedral as you said, but in the Ste. Anna Kirsch. Sir Hillary Bray would have known. A small slip. Takes more than a few props to turn 007 into a Herald.

Bond
[breaks Bond's glasses] [normal voice]

It'll take more than cutting off your earlobes, Blofeld, to turn you into a Count.

Bond
[M refuses to authorize an attack on Blofeld]

And the girl who helped me escape? We just leave her there?

M

This department is not concerned with your personal problems.

Bond

This department owes her a debt. She saved my life.

M

Operation Bedlam is DEAD! Do you understand, 007?

Bond

Yes, Sir. I understand.

Why do you persist in rescuing me, Mr. Bond?

Bond

It's becoming quite a habit, isn't it, Contessa Teresa?

Teresa was a Saint; I'm known as Tracy.

Bond

Well, Tracy, next time play it safe and stand on 5.

People who want to stay alive play it safe.

Bond

Please, stay alive! At least for tonight.

[Bond finds Tracy in his hotel suite with his gun in her hand]

Suppose I were to kill you for a thrill?

Bond

I can think of something more sociable to do.

My apologies for the way you were brought here. I wasn't sure you'd accept a formal invitation.

Bond

There's always something formal about the point of a pistol.

[Bond throws a knife and hits a calendar on a bookshelf, on the 14th day]

But today is the thirteenth, Commander.

Bond

I'm superstitious.

May I introduce my daughter, Teresa.

Bond

Contessa..!

Mr. Bond and I have already met.

Bond

But each time is a renewed pleasure. Madame always makes one feel so welcome!

[Tracy leaves]

She likes you! I can see it.

Bond

You must give me the name of your oculist!!

Bond
[about Tracy]

I find her fascinating. But, she needs a psychiatrist, not me.

What she needs is a man... to dominate her! To make love to her enough to make her love him! A man like you!

Bond

Allergy vaccines? Bacteria. Bacteriological Warfare.

With a difference. Our big breakthrough since last summer has been the confection of a certain... Virus Omega.

Bond

Infertility.

TOTAL Infertility! In plants and animals. Not just disease in a few herds, Mr. Bond. Or the loss of a single crop. But the destruction of a whole strain. Forever! Throughout an entire continent.

Q
[wishing Bond luck on his wedding day]

Look, James, I know that we haven't always exactly seen... well, anyway, don't forget, if there's anything you ever need...

Bond

Thank you, Q, but this time I've got the gadgets and I know how to use them.

Merry Christmas, 007.

Bond

I'm Sir Hillary Bray.

No no no, Mr. Bond. Respectable baronets from the College of Heralds do not seduce female patients in clinics. On the other hand, they do get their professional details... right. The De Bleauchamps tombs are not in the Augsburg Cathedral as you said, but in the Ste. Anna Kirch. Sir Hillary Bray would have known! A small slip. It takes more than a few props to turn 007 into a Herald. [snaps Bond's disguise spectacles in half]

Bond
[normal voice]

It'll take more than cutting off your earlobes, Blofeld, to turn you into a Count.

I may yet surprise you. But I'm afraid you have no more surprises left for me. I know all about your mission, Mr. Bond. [throws Bond's contact's climbing equipment to the ground] Your colleague! Such a keen climber, and a brilliant conversationalist... before he left us.

Bond

You realize that he reported where I am.

Oh, I doubt that. In any case, no one is coming to your rescue, Mr. Bond. In a few short hours, the United Nations will receive a Yuletide greeting. The information that I now possess the scientific means to control... or to destroy, the economy of the whole world. People will have more important things to think about than you.

Bond

If they believe your threat.

[chuckles, sits]

Oh, they will. In any case, I have prepared a demonstration. Remember that... disagreeable outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in England, last summer? [lights a cigarette] Well, I shall instruct them, in very convincing terms, exactly how I arranged that. And my capacity has improved, since.

Bond

Allergy vaccines? [pause] Bacteria. Bacteriological warfare.

With a difference. Our great breakthrough since last summer has been the confection of a certain "Virus Omega".

Bond

...Infertility.

Total infertility, in plants and animals. Not just disease in a few herds, Mr Bond, or a single crop... but the destruction of a whole strain, forever, throughout an entire continent. If my demands are not met, I shall proceed with the systematic extinction of whole species of cereals and livestock all over the world.

Bond

Including, I suppose, the human race?

[smirks]

I don't think, do you, Mr. Bond, that the United Nations will let it come to that? Not after their scientists analyze a small sample of Virus Omega they have received.

Bond

Epidemics of sterility. Nothing is born, no seed even begins to sprout. [pause] They'll find an antidote.

Of course! If I give them enough time. [stands]

Bond

They'll have time. Once they're warned, you'll have a problem dispensing the stuff.

That problem has already been solved. I have been training my own special... "Angels of Death."

Bond

Those girls.

Those girls. And many others like them.

Bond

But, exactly how?

Mm. [drags on his cigarette]... That will remain my secret.

Bond
[smirks]

And how many hundred millions do you want for your services this time, Blofeld?

"This time?" [chuckles] This time, the price is of another kind. You'll be even more amused when you know what. In the meanwhile, I will keep you here as my guest. You'll be very useful in helping to convince the authorities... that I mean what I say. And I'll do what I claim.
