Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski Quotes in To Be or Not to Be (1942)

Josef Tura: Wait a minute. I'll decide with whom my wife is going to have dinner and whom she's going to kill.

Maria Tura: Don't you realize Poland's at stake?

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: Have you no patriotism?

Josef Tura: Now listen, you... first you walk out on my soliloquy and then you walk into my slippers. And now you question my patriotism. I'm a good Pole and I love my country and I love my slippers.

Maria Tura: Well, I hope your country comes first.

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: So do I.

Maria Tura: This is an emergency! War!

Josef Tura: Look, look, look, I don't know much about the whole thing... but is this Siletsky a real danger to Poland?

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: A catastrophe!

Maria Tura: He must be taken care of!

Josef Tura: Then he will be taken care of.

Maria Tura: Well, who's gonna do it?

Josef Tura: I'm gonna do it.

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: But how?

Maria Tura: Where?

Josef Tura: I'm gonna meet Herr Siletsky at Gestapo headquarters. And after I've killed him I hope you'll be kind enough to tell me what it was all about!

Maria Tura: No, no, no. I think we've talked much too much about me. Tell me about yourself.

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: Well, there isn't much to tell. I just fly a bomber.

Maria Tura: Oh, how perfectly thrilling!

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: I don't know about it being thrilling. But it's quite a bomber. You might not believe it, but I can drop three tons of dynamite in two minutes.

Maria Tura: Really?

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: Does that interest you?

Maria Tura: It certainly does.

Josef Tura: It's unbelievable! Unbelievable! I come home to find a man in the same boat with me and my wife says to me, "What does it matter?"

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: But, Mr. Tura, it's the 'zero hour'.

Maria Tura: You certainly don't want me to waste a lot of time giving you a long explanation.

Josef Tura: No, but I think a husband is entitled to an inkling.

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: You see, sir, the other night Professor Siletsky was addressing us at the camp, and I mentioned the name of Maria Tura - and he never heard of her.

Gen. Armstrong: Neither have I.

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: Oh, but, he's supposed to be a Pole who lived in Warsaw and she's the most famous actress in Warsaw.

Gen. Armstrong: Now, look here, young man, there are lots of people who're not interested in the theater. As a matter of fact, there's only one actress I ever heard of - and I certainly hope I'll never hear from her again.

Lieutenant Stanislav Sobinski: I hope you'll forgive me if I acted a little clumsy, but this is the first time I ever met an actress.

Maria Tura: Lieutenant, this is the first time I've ever met a man who could drop three tons of dynamite in two minutes.
