The Maltese Falcon quotes

  • Joel Cairo: I certainly wish you would have invented a more reasonable story. I felt distinctly like an idiot repeating it.

    Sam Spade: Don't worry about the story's goofiness. A sensible one would have had us all in the cooler.

    Sam Spade: Maybe I do. I'll have some rotten nights after I've sent you over, but that'll pass.
