    Irma Bunt: Is anything ze matter, Sir Hilary?
    James Bond: Just a slight stiffness coming on... in the shoulder.


    - Mr Bond?

    - Yes.

    - You´ve lost something.

    - Really?

    We´II give it to you outside.

    Why not? Perhaps

    we can make up a foursome!

    You´ve thought of everything. What a

    lovely surprise, meeting again so soon(! )

    - Mm.

    - Thank you.


    - And where´s the party this time?

    - You have an appointment.


    Business or pleasure?


    Mystery tour, eh?

    I think we´d all enjoy it more without that.

    Mmm.

    "Do not kill me, Mr Bond! At least not until we´ve had a drink."

    Tracy: "Thy dawn, O Master of the World, thy dawn. For thee the sunlight creeps across the lawn. For thee the ships are drawn down to the waves. For thee the market throng with myriad slaves. For thee the hammer on the anvil rings. For thee the poet of beguilement sings."

    Not many Bond actresses could pull that off - but Rigg is in her element.

    Blofeld: To begin with, I was born without earlobes, a well-known congenital distention of Bleuchamp ancestry - like the Hapsburg lip of the hawk-nose of the Medicis.

    Very close to Flemings original prose.

    "Tell him papa...or you will never see me again" (its either "him" or "me" - can't remember which)

    "Its not new year yet"

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

    "I was always taught that mistakes should be remedied. Especially between friends. Or lovers"

    "you're a picture yourself, and twice as lovely in the firelight.... That lipstick was an inspiration. So are you..."

    lofeld: In a few hours, the United Nations will receive our yuletide greetings - the information that I now possess the scientific means to control, or to destroy, the economy of the whole word.

    James Bond: Unusually small for a Nymphalis pholychloris.
    M: I wasn't aware that your expertise included lepidoptery

    This will be the most difficult one for me, but nevertheless, I'll give it a shot.

    Blofeld: "Merry Christmas, 007!"
    007: "My name is Sir Hilary Bray."
    Blofeld: "Oh hoho, no, Sir Hilary. Distinguished representatives of the Royal Collage of Arms do not seduce female patients in clinics. They do however get their facts right. The (something or other) is not in the (something or other) as you said, but are in the (something or other). A small slip. It takes more than a few props and tricks to turn 007 into a herald."
    007: "Takes more than cutting off your earlobes, Blofeld, to turn you into a count."
    Blofeld: "Well, I may surprise you yet. But I'm afraid you have no surprises left for me."

    Tracy: "Story of our life, James?"
    007: "Just keep my martini cool."

    Tracy: "You're quite sure of yourself, aren't you? Suppose I were to kill you for a thrill."
    007: "I can think of something more sociable to do."

    Marc Ange Draco: "Distinguished representatives of the World Press. They've had enough of your nonsense, and so have I! In the meantime, call off your airforce, it is making my passengers sick!"

    "But sir, Blofeld is something of a must with me."

    "You must give me the name of your occulist."

    "She also plays a very good game of chess."

    "I mean what I say, and will do what I claim."

    "You have connections not open to me; where is Ernst Stavro Blofeld?"

    "We have all the time in the world."

    "You didn't really want to resign, did you?"

    "Operation Bedlam is dead. Understand?"

    "Unusually small for a Nymphalis polychloris."

    "Thy dawn, O master of the world, thy dawn..."

    "Just a slight stiffness coming on."

    "I will teach you love chickens, to love their flesh, their voice."

    "It has been very nice to cure you."

    007: "Merry Christmas." (too bad this one good Lazenby line had to be ruined seconds afterwards by that dumb gift-wrapped line)

    Irma Bunt: "Is something the matter, Sir Hilary?"
    007: "Just a slight stiffness coming along.....in the shoulder."

    'It will take more than cutting off your earlobes to make you a count'

    'He had a lot of guts'

    'Go on - no, about the therapy I mean'

    'Just a slight stiffness coming on, in the shoulder, due to the altitude no doubt'

    'Please stay alive, at least for tonight'

    'This time I've got the gadgets, and I know how to use them'

    'He's Branched Off'

    'Call me Hilly'

    'Never mind that, go and fetch the brandy, four star Hennessy of course'

    "What is a baronet, anyway?"

    "It's kind of an inferior sort of baron. Oh I don't mean you're inferior, I mean the title is."

    "She also plays a very good game of chess."

    Time to dust this off, and continue methinks.
    A few of my favourite lines from OHMSS before we move on...

    Draco: My apologies for the way you were brought here. I wasn't sure you'd accept a *formal* invitation.
    James Bond: There's always something formal about the point of a pistol.

    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.

    This one still gets me. Can't help welling up when we get to this line. Lazenby despite a lack in acting nails this scene for me. Great stuff.


    Irma Bunt: Is anything ze matter, Sir Hilary?
    James Bond: Just a slight stiffness coming on... in the shoulder.

    James Bond: And the girl who helped me escape? We just leave her there?
    M: This department is not concerned with your personal problems.
    James Bond: This department owes her a *debt*. She saved my life.
    M: Operation Bedlam is DEAD! Do you understand, 007?
    James Bond: Yes, Sir. I understand.




    And so we move on to Diamonds Are Forever

    Whilst it's one of my least favourite as far as Bond films go, it is one of my favourites for dialogue. Some truly great lines in DAF, which I'm sure we can enjoy now...

    Am I too late for Majesty's:

    "Thy Dawn oh master of the world, thy dawn, for thee the sunlight creeps across the lawn"

    "James!! Darling your in trouble what is it?"

    "Tell him papa! Tell him what he wants to know! Now! Or you will never see me again"

    "You're very sure of yourself aren't you! Suppose I were to kill you for a thrill?"

    "Why do you persist in rescuing me Mr Bond?"

    "Teresa was a Saint, I'm known as Tracy"

    "Well you have given me a wedding present. The best I could have...a future"

    Notice a pattern here? ;)

    "I mean what I say, and will do what I claim."

    Yep

    And a few from Laz:

    "It's not new year yet!"

    "He had lots of guts"

    "It's alright, Its quite alright 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"

    A few others:

    "Merry Christmas 007"

    "Ruby Bartlet, from Lancashire"

    "Haha, its true"

    "This department is not concerned with your personal problems!"

    "But todays the 13th?"

    God Majesty''s really is a gem


    As for Diamonds:

    "well as long as the collars and cuffs match..."

    "I didn't know there was a pool down there"

    "There's something I'd like you to get off your chest"

    "speak up darling I can't hear you"

    "I'm afraid you caught me with more than my hands up"

    "Put it back Mr Bond...immediately" (LOVE Charles Grey's delivery more than the line)

    And a few from old Jill:
    "Why Peter...I'm very impressed"

    "My gaad...you just killed James Band!"

    "Blow up your pants!"

    "AAAARRRGHH"

    "Eeeek"

    Hmm...maybe Jill's lines aren't as classy as Diana's but nonetheless they are funny.

    Ummm okay. We're looking for quotes from Diamonds Are Forever. I would've thought the thread title was a bit of a giveaway really. Silly me.

    "Here for the first time, see Zambora, strangest girl ever born to live. She was captured near Nairobi, South Africa and is believed to be part of a cruel, inhuman experiment."

    "Here we have a little man, a little lady, and a big lady. You're a little outta your league, arent' ya', sister?"

    "We've selected a private niche for your brother in our Garden of Remembrance. The one with the restful chartreuse curtains and the angel's breath gold trim."

    "We now begin zee transcendental transformation. But in every experiment, zerr's always a danger! So God forbid something should happen, get out of here! Very silent, very quiet please."

    DAF: My two favorites are -

    "As long as the collar and cuffs match ... "

    and

    "Named after your father perhaps?" (especially as I adore Peter O'Toole) ;)
