Harry Tuttle: My good friends call me Harry.
Spoor: All you've got to do is blow your nose and it's fixed, in't it?
Mr. Warrenn: What is this mess? An empty desk is an efficient desk.
Arresting Officer: This is your receipt for your husband... and this is my receipt for your receipt.
Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Lowry is in his new office in Information Retrieval and discovers that he shares a desk with Harvey Lime next door, watch as the camera dollies after Sam into Lime's office: first the camera wobbles as it grazes the door, then later in the scene as the camera moves in further, it bumps audibly to a halt against the edge of the desk, complete with a muffled exclamation by the camera operator.
Trivia: The "smoking man" at the Shangri-La tower who bumps into Sam is the film's director, Terry Gilliam.
