- Archie: Eva, Conny isn't back yet.
- Eva Randolph: Did you ever know Ruth to bring a fellow back this early?
- Archie: Sure.
- Eva Randolph: Who?
- Archie: Me.
- Ruth Brock: Miss Brock:
- [on the phone to a bank customer]
- Ruth Brock: Yes, Mr. Smith. Yes, Mr. Smith. The balance is correct... perhaps you failed to deduct the government tax. Yes, there's a two-cent tax on every check you write. Oh no, no. Not just for Democrats. The Republicans have to pay it too.
- Ruth Brock: Immoral women shouldn't work in banks, you know. They might corrupt the young dollar bills.
- Eva Randolph: [Insinuating after Ruth has been missing from the party] Oh, so you finally got back!
- Ruth Brock: Did you expect me to be gone all night?
- Eva Randolph: [Insinuatingly] Well, dear, I didn't know. You see, a girl in your position can afford to be so much more unconventional in her pleasures than I could.
- Bill Fadden: Are you going to laugh at me, or marry me, or cry some more?
- Ruth Brock: [Crying and hugging] I'm going to do all three at once.
- Ruth Brock: [Pushing her younger sister on the bed, lifting up her dress, and taking off her panty shorts] A brief pull and then silence.
- Ruth Brock: You're supposed to see things you want, in a bank.
- Romer Sheffield: Yes, and the moment you go to get them, burglar alarms start going off all over town.
- Eva Randolph: Conny's a fool.
- Archie: Why?
- Eva Randolph: Letting Ruth drag him off outside just like the rest of the fellows that chase her.
- Archie: He's not fool.
- Camille: If you think you can park me out here, while you go in and flirt with some dizzy little bank clerk, you're crazy.
- Romer Sheffield: I'm crazy!
- Romer Sheffield: Would it interest you to know that I've wanted you ever since I first saw you in the bank?
- Ruth Brock: You're supposed to see things you want in banks.
- Romer Sheffield: Yes, but the moment you go to get them, burglar alarms start ringing all over town.
- Ida Brock: Well, what have you got to say for yourself?
- Ruth Brock: Mother, I didn't do anything...
- Ida Brock: Don't you stand there and lie to me! When the whole town's talking about you and sneering at you. I might've known you'd do something to disgrace the family! Painting your face and staying out nights with a load of rotten young whelps!
