Quotes 

• Lyle Kilburn : This may look like a country club, Mr. Mannix, but when you're shut up in here, you know it's a prison.

  Joe Mannix : You seem to be taking it well, Mr. Kilburn.

  Lyle Kilburn : Not getting a lot of sleep lately.

  Joe Mannix : Why not?

  Lyle Kilburn : My partner's murder. I hear the police think it was a burglar. There are a lot of burglars in here. One of them probably has an ice pick with my name on it.

  Joe Mannix : Are you telling me that you believe Mark Bradford was a contract hit?

  Lyle Kilburn : A contract with two names on it, Mr. Mannix, Mark Bradford's and mine. The syndicate wants Bradford Hotels International.

  Joe Mannix : And Bradford wouldn't deal?

  Lyle Kilburn : Neither would I. See, the hotels were more than property to Mark. They were his life. I understood that. I'm not certain he would've chosen to die for them. I know damn well I don't want to.

  Joe Mannix : I take it you don't have the same sentiments for the hotels that your partner did?

  Lyle Kilburn : No, not really.

  Joe Mannix : Then you would sell, right?

  Lyle Kilburn : No, Bradford Hotels International is not going to become a worldwide laundry for their tainted money. I gave Mark my solemn word when they made their offer.

  Joe Mannix : I'd say you have a problem.
