Dwight Troy Quotes in Harper (1966)

Dwight Troy: [about Fay Estabrook] Why are you interested in an old bag of worms like her?

Lew Harper: She's not an old bag of worms. She's the sexiest thing I ever seen.

Dwight Troy: Well I disagree, but then, you see, I am married to Miss Estabrook and I know whereof I speak. Hey, don't get me wrong, sport, I am not the jealous type. You want her, you can have her!

Dwight Troy: [Pointing a pistol] I beg you not to do anything foolish, old stick.

Lew Harper: Is that thing loaded?

Dwight Troy: Six times.

Lew Harper: I'm shocked, Mr. Troy. A man of your eminence... involved in something as seamy as smuggling in immigrant labor?

Dwight Troy: Yeah, well, you are right, you know. It is beneath me. But it pays so well. You know they are wonderfully cheap workers? And the point is, they pay me to smuggle them in, and the ranch owners and the farmers, they pay me, too. Disgustingly lucrative! But, as you suggest, hardly enriching to the soul.
