Natasha : You don't like him because he's so outspoken. You don't like his manners. Isn't that it?
Prince Chegodieff : No, that's not it. It, its his, smile. It's like a man-eating shark with a bible under his fin.
-
Prince Chegodieff : I don't like him. I never shall.
Natasha : You never tried to.
Prince Chegodieff : Oh, it isn't that. There's something, clammy about him. I can't explain it. I've had the same feeling, brushing against something on a dark night.

The Czarina : I need you.
Prince Chegodieff : Yes, your Majesty.
The Czarina : I've injured you. But, I've injured Russia more.
Prince Chegodieff : Your Majesty, I know how much you love Russia. Everything in your heart, everything that you've done, you thought was for Russia's good.
The Czarina : My heart is broken. What are we to do?

The Czarina : Paul!
Prince Chegodieff : Majesty! Your lordship, look at him!
The Czarina : What's the matter with him?
Rasputin : Why, he's frightened, naturally. It's alright my boy, go to your mother. Don't be afraid. He won't hurt me.
Prince Chegodieff : Look at his eyes!
The Czarina : What's the matter with his eyes?
Rasputin : Is it because he wasn't glad to see you? What do you say to your mother, lordship?
The Czarevitch : I love you mamushka.
The Czarina : I love you darling.

The Czar : Igor!
Prince Chegodieff : The, eh, last Empress Germany gave us, Catherine, was usually called the Great.
