Krystle's Lie (1981)

John Forsythe: Blake Carrington

Quotes 

• Blake Carrington : Well, let me tell you something about friends, Krystle. My friends...

  [sighs] 

  Blake Carrington : In this business, your only friend is a dead enemy. The minute you hit the ground, these friends would turn on you like a pack of hungry dogs.

  Krystle Carrington : How do you say that?

  Blake Carrington : Well, because if the situation was reversed... I would do the same to them.

• Blake Carrington : I know you, Matthew. We've been friends and we've been enemies, too. I know one thing about you, that you're honest. So you look me right in the eye and you tell me that you still don't think about Krystle every night and every day, day and night. You do that and I'll call off my dogs.

• Blake Carrington : My son is in love with a man... my daughter is in love with sex. She's probably still sleeping with every player on my football team.

• Blake Carrington : Our child, when we have one - and I know we're going to have one soon - we'll call him Blake, all right? Our child. The one that you will give me.

• Matthew Blaisdel : I wanna know what kind of man would let his son take the rap for something he didn't do? For something his own father set up?

  Blake Carrington : Oh, that, huh?

• Matthew Blaisdel : You know, Blake, I used to respect you. I used to think you were the smartest man I'd ever known. But you're losin' it. You're dyin' in it. You're operating the old way. Trouble is, the day of the old tycoon, the oil baron, is over. And like them, you don't have any values anymore. You don't give a damn about anybody or anything.

  Blake Carrington : Oh, c'mon, Matthew. You're talking about America, the American Dream, laissez-faire, mother, apple pie... petroleum.

  Matthew Blaisdel : I'm talkin' about how you poison just about every damn thing you touch.
