Memorable Quotes from Lotte Lenya
1 quoteBlame and Accountability Among Agents
Ernst Blofeld
Three men were found dead on the train at Trieste. One of them was Grant. What have you to say, Number Five?
Kronsteen
It was Klebb's choice. Her people failed.
Rosa Klebb
It was your plan! They followed it implicitly!
Kronsteen
Impossible. It was perfect.
Rosa Klebb
Except for one thing. They were dealing with Bond!
Kronsteen
Who is Bond compared with Kronsteen?
Ernst Blofeld
Exactly. What have you to say to that, Number Three? Bond is still alive, and the L.E.K.T.O.R. is not yet in our possession. I have already negotiated with the Russians to return it to them. We've agreed a price. And S.P.E.C.T.R.E always delivers what it promises. Our whole organization depends on us keeping those promises. I warned you. We do not tolerate failure, Number Three. You know the penalty.
[''Klebb says nothing; Blofeld pushes a button on his desk, and Morzeny enters the room''; ''Morzeny comes up behind Klebb and Kronsteen''; ''Morzeny presses one of his boots against the other, and a small spike extends from its' toe'']
Rosa Klebb
Yes, Number One.
Ernst Blofeld
Our rules are very simple. If you fail...
Ernst Blofeld
Twelve seconds. One day, we must invent a faster-working venom. Number Three.
[''Klebb pulls a handnerchief out of her pocket and starts mopping sweat from her brow'']
Rosa Klebb
Yes?
[''Hastily puts away her handkerchief'']
Ernst Blofeld
I do not wish to have to tell the Russians that there will be another delay.
Rosa Klebb
There will be no delay, Number One. There's still time.
