A Scandal in Paris Quotes:

Eugéne François Vidocq: In crime, as in love, there are only those who do, and those who don't dare.
Eugéne François Vidocq: Like most good men, I came from a poor but honest family - a little poorer than honest. The difference accounted for my being born in prison. Whenever poor mama expected another baby and consequently needed shelter, it was her custom to steal a loaf of bread and go to prison. She had stolen eleven loaves, served eleven sentences, and had eleven children, when to her misfortunes were added a twelfth. When poor mama went to a better world, leaving me to make the best of this one, what is more natural than that I should often return to the happy scene of my earliest childhood?
Eugéne François Vidocq: Sometimes the chains of matrimony are so heavy they have to be carried by three.
Eugéne François Vidocq: Try to see further than the point of your knife. If I become chief of police, we'll have a chance to loot the city.
Emile Vernet: Loot a city? What does that mean?
Eugéne François Vidocq: Conservatively... fifteen million.
Emile Vernet: Fifteen...?
Eugéne François Vidocq: ...million... in gold.
Emile Vernet: Where is it?
Eugéne François Vidocq: In the vault of the Bank of Paris.
Emile Vernet: Bank of Paris? Hmmmnnnn... Such a job! No! Too big for the two of us!
Eugéne François Vidocq: Yes, but we can enlist the support of your dear family.
Emile Vernet: Yeah, family!... Yeah, but we'll have to give them a cut.
Eugéne François Vidocq: A small percentage.
Emile Vernet: Nah... no percentage! Just a cut!
Eugéne François Vidocq: There's no fool so dangerous as a fool with brains.
Loretta: Except a woman so foolish as to fall in love.
