“I knew if he left I'd never see him again, so I seized the revolver and fired. I heard a cry. He staggered toward the veranda and I ran after him and fired and fired and fired. There's no excuse for me. I don't deserve to live.”

Bette Davis - Leslie Crosbie

“The Monster had escaped and was ravaging the countryside, killing, maiming, terrorizing. One night he burst into our house. My father took a gun and fired at him but the savage brute sent him crashing to a corner.”

Lionel Atwill - Inspector Krogh

“Now sometime before morning, I'm going to let off both barrels of this shotgun right at you. I don't know just what time it'll happen... whenever my finger gets to itching too much.”

Jean Arthur - Phoebe Titus
