Schindler's List Quote

Amon Goeth : Oskar, there's a clerical error here at the bottom of the last page.
Oskar Schindler : No, there's one more name I want to put there. I'll never find a maid as well trained as her at Brinnlitz. They are all country girls.
Amon Goeth : [ referring to Helen ] No. No.
Oskar Schindler : One hand of 21. If you win, I pay you 7400 Reichmarks. Hit a natural and I make it 14800. If I win, the girl goes on my list.
Amon Goeth : I can't wager Helen in a card game.
Oskar Schindler : Why not?
Amon Goeth : Wouldn't be right.
Oskar Schindler : She's going to Auschwitz on Number Two anyway. What difference does it make?
Amon Goeth : She's not going to Auschwitz. I'd never do that to her. No, I want her to come back to Vienna with me. I want her to come to work for me there. I want to grow old with her.
Oskar Schindler : Are you mad? Amon, you can't take her to Vienna with you.
Amon Goeth : No, of course I can't. That's what I'd like to do. What I can do, if I'm any sort of a man is the next most merciful thing. I should take her into the woods and shoot her painlessly in the back of the head.
Amon Goeth : What was it you said for a natural 21? Was it 14800?
