• Mercier : Frankly gentlemen, we're expected to take a loss.

  Iranoff : Capitalistic methods...

  Buljanoff : [nodding in agreement]  They accumulate millions while taking loss after loss!

• Mercier : Come, gentlemen, let's put our cards on the table. Right now, there's a Russian commission in New York trying to sell 15 Rembrandts. There's another in London, mortgaging the oil fields in Baku. You need money and you need it quickly. Now, I think my offer is a very fair one. It doesn't even take advantage of your situation.
