The Beast with Five Fingers - Negotiating Representation and Fees
Duprex:
Would you like me to represent you in the matter?
Raymond Arlington:
Of course.
Duprex:
What would my share be?
Raymond Arlington:
Share? You mean your fee?
Duprex:
I said share.
Raymond Arlington:
What do you want?
Duprex:
A participation, or to say, one third. You understand, I would offer my services to Miss Holden, under the same circumstances.
Donald Arlington:
You mean you'd help her instead of us?
Duprex:
I am on the side of those who engage me.

Ben Hubbard:
Until one loses today, and wins tomorrow. I say to myself, years of planning, and I get what I want. And then I don't get it... But I'm not discouraged. The world's open for people like you and me.

Regina Giddens: [Amused]
I think so.

The Little Foxes - The Consequences of Defiance and Beauty
Ben Hubbard:
Regina, you're a fool! How many times did Mama tell you it's unwise for a good-lookin woman to frown? How many times have I told you that softness and a smile will do more to the hearts of men?

Ben Hubbard:
I hope you do, Regina.
