The Man Who Understood Women (1959)

Myron McCormick: Preacher

Quotes 

• Willie Bauche : [Willie's dressed in an Arab costume]  Micky's okay. That gangster stuff is all in the past. He's strictly legit now. Nothing but slot machines.

  Preacher : Would Romeo have put a tail on Juliet?

  Willie Bauche : No, and that's probably why he's not with us today. Romeo happens to be the most overrated practitioner in the history of romance. Who else but a medieval Mortimer Snerd could have managed to get his whole wedding party knocked off?

  Preacher : Women don't like being tailed, Sire, especially women who are wives.

  Willie Bauche : Did you smell that Mimosa last night?

  Preacher : I was transported by its fragrance.

  Willie Bauche : That's what I mean. All that Mimosa, moonlight, music. There must be a thousand violins in this hotel alone. A woman's got to be protected against herself. Or, to put it bluntly, against over-stimulation.

  Preacher : I'm still perturbed, Sire.

  Willie Bauche : Your trouble, of course, is you know nothing about women. You realise why you're not married don't you?

  Preacher : Just luck, I imagine.

  Willie Bauche : Women can see through you.
