The Grand Budapest Hotel quotes

  • M. Gustave: Why do you want to be a lobby boy?

    Zero: Well, who wouldn't - at the Grand Budapest, sir. It's an institution.

  • M. Gustave: What is a lobby boy? A lobby boy is completely invisible, yet always in sight. A lobby boy remembers what people hate. A lobby boy anticipates the client's needs before the needs are needed. A lobby boy is, above all, discreet to a fault. Our guests know that their deepest secrets, some of which are frankly rather unseemly, will go with us to our graves. So keep your mouth shut, Zero.
