Martini: Signora, between Austria and Italy, there is a section of the Alps called the Semmering. It is an impossibly steep, very high part of the mountains. They built a train track over these Alps to connect Vienna and Venice. They built these tracks even before there was a train in existence that could make the trip.

Martini: Signora. Please stop being so sad. If you continue like this, I will be forced to make love to you. And I've never been unfaithful to my wife.

Frances: I'll hire the muscular descendants of Roman gods to do the heavy lifting.
Pawel: I throw the flag.
Katherine: It's a nice little villa. Rather run down, but redeemable. Are you going to buy it?
Frances: No, no, no. I'm, I'm just a tourist. Here for the day.

Katherine: Terrible idea. Mm... Don't you just love those?
Katherine: Never lose your childish innocence. It's the most important thing.
Frances: Ladybugs, Katherine. Lots and lots of ladybugs.
Patti: Can you star-69 Italy?
Signora Raguzzi: It's a house, not a Vespa. What are you going to do, steal it?
