Sister Lily : Don't hesitate to ring if there's anything else you want. Anything at all.

-
James Bond : Now, don't worry, Quarrel. Everything's going to be fine.

James Bond : For me, Crab Key's going to be a gentle relaxation.
Felix Leiter : From what? Dames?

Major Boothroyd : [to M, referring to Bond's Beretta] Nice and light... in a lady's handbag.
M : Any comment, 007?
James Bond : I disagree, sir. I've carried the Beretta for ten years, and I've never missed with it.
M : No, but it jammed on you last job, and you spent six months in hospital in consequence. When you carry a 00 number, you have a license to kill, not get killed. Furthermore, since I've been head of MI7
[sic - MI6]
M : there's been a forty percent drop in casualties, and I want to keep it that way. From now on you carry the Walther... unless you'd rather return to standard intelligence duties.
James Bond : No sir, I would not.
M : [to Boothroyd] Show him, Armourer.
Major Boothroyd : [to Bond] Walther PPK, 7.65 millimeter, with a delivery like a brick through a plate-glass window. The American CIA swear by them.

-
Dr. No : [about his aquarium] The glass is convex, 10 inches thick, which accounts for the magnifying effect.
James Bond : Minnows pretending they're whales. Just like you on this island, Dr. No.
Dr. No : It depends, Mr. Bond, on which side of the glass you are.
-
Hotel Valet : One medium dry vodka martini, mixed like you said, sir, and not stirred.

[explaining why she believes the legend about Crab Key's fire-breathing dragon]
Honey Ryder : How well do you know about animals? Did you ever see a mongoose dance? Or, a scorpion with sunstroke sting itself to death? Or, a praying mantis eat her husband after making love?

Felix Leiter : Nothing much, except his name: Dr. No.

Honey Ryder : [singing] Underneath the mango tree, La-la-la-la-de, Come watch for the moon, La-la-la mango tree, Me honey and me make boolooloop, Underneath the mango tree, Make boolooloop soon, La-la-la-de-da-da, Me honey and me...
James Bond : [singing] Underneath the mango tree, Ma honey and me...

Dr. No : I'm sure the guards will amuse her.
