- Polly Rochay: [as Elmer Truffle snores loudly] Well, I don't know how you could marry a man that snores that way.
- Marie Truffle: [laughing] It was too late when I found it out.
- Marie Truffle: [at the train station searching franticly under her blouse for her pocketbook] Oh, there she is. It slipped. Oh, my land. Now how am I going to get it? Oh, what am I going to do?
- Old Man on Ticket Line: Can I help ya, lady?
- Marie Truffle: You can *not*! There's no fool like an old fool.
- Marie Truffle: [to her daughter Vivian] Aw, come, pull yourself together, darling. Forget all about it. I tell you, there isn't a man in the world worth worrying about. I got to go up now. Your papa's in bed again with his stomach. I'm worried to death about him.
- Elmer Truffle: Who was at the door?
- Marie Truffle: Lindbergh to take me flying, but I couldn't go.
- Elmer Truffle: Oh, these women!
- Vivian Truffle: Well, Tommy isn't smart or sophisticated.
- Marie Truffle: Aw, a woman doesn't want a husband who's too smart. A man that's a little dumb is a lot more restful.
- Marie Truffle: You know, my shape isn't what it used to be. As a matter of fact, I don't think I'm very good for a reducing parlor.
- Polly Rochay: Oh, nonsense! Your shape hasn't anything to do with it at all.
- Marie Truffle: Hasn't it?
- Polly Rochay: Just look at the people who buy hair tonic from bald-headed barbers.
- Marie Truffle: Hah, hmmm. I hadn't thought of that.
- Polly Rochay: I don't want the money. Whaddaya think I am, an Indian giver?
- Marie Truffle: You're a whole reservation. You little - fat squaw!
- Polly Rochay: Is that your husband?
- Marie Truffle: Yeah, what's wrong with him?
- Polly Rochay: Nothing. Only he has such a peculiar expression on his face.
- Marie Truffle: Where'd you expect him to have it?
- Stuttering Ticket Agent: Where are you going?
- Marie Truffle: I'm going to visit my sister.
- Stuttering Ticket Agent: Well, where does she live?
- Marie Truffle: On Riverside Drive.
- Stuttering Ticket Agent: Madame, would you be kind enough to tell me what city you wanna go to?
- Marie Truffle: Oh, huh, huh, the city. Why isn't that silly of me? Yeah, I wanna go to New York.
- Stuttering Ticket Agent: You wanna go by Buffalo.
- Marie Truffle: No, I don't wanna go by Buffalo. I wanna go by train.
- Polly Rochay: Oh, I've been so terribly dumb.
- Marie Truffle: Well, I don't know what you're talking about, but I agree with you.
- Marie Truffle: Oh, baby, listen. I don't want you to miss out on the biggest thing in life - real love. Romance. I can remember when your Papa used to come on my front porch, play the flute. Seems that I can just hear him now.
- [Elmer snores]
- Polly Rochay: I'll settle this. No one's coming into this house and make my little girl miserable. That South Bend Vampire!
- Johnnie Beasley: Gee, she's a peach!
- Joyce Rochay: [pouting] Yes, if you like the type. And you seem to.
- Marie Truffle: Gratitude, huh? Gratitude! Gratitude. I've heard so much of gratitude, it spoiled my appetite!
- Polly Rochay: My grocery bills say different.
- Johnnie Beasley: I go abroad every year.
- Vivian Truffle: I never go anywhere. It must be wonderful to have traveled and seen everything.
- Johnnie Beasley: Well, I travel a lot, but I've never seen anyone quite as beautiful as you are.
- Joyce Rochay: She's been perfectly shameless.
- Marie Truffle: Shameless?
- Joyce Rochay: Yes, shameless! What do you suppose a man wants with a little Middle Western hick like her!
- Marie Truffle: Mud turtle!
- Polly Rochay: Oh, strike me! Go on and strike me.
- Marie Truffle: I wouldn't touch you with a pair of rubber gloves.
- Marie Truffle: Well, say, baby, where's this gonna end? Does he want you to marry him?
- Vivian Truffle: Well, I thought last night he was *thinking* about it.
- Marie Truffle: Thinking about getting married isn't getting married.
- Marty Truffle: Hey, Ma, would a few raisins give me the cramps?
- Marie Truffle: Certainly not.
- Marie Truffle: [taking the box of raisins] Not if you don't eat 'em. Go to bed.
- Marie Truffle: It wouldn't do no good for me to dictate. No, sir. You know, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it get married.
- Marie Truffle: Has he ever been fresh to you?
- Vivian Truffle: Why, of course not.
- Marie Truffle: Well, he might! Now, you be careful!
- Vivian Truffle: He almost asked me to marry him tonight.
- Marie Truffle: I've known a lot of trouble come out of a man *almost* asking girls to marry him.
- Marie Truffle: Polly, you know, I'm kind of glad you called me up. The funniest thing happened. When I put the turkey in the oven a little while ago, I thought of you.
- Marie Truffle: I want to see Mr. Beasley.
- Beasley's Butler: I'm sorry but you'll have to see him tomorrow.
- Marie Truffle: I'm sorry but I've got to see him now!
- Beasley's Butler: Mr. Beasley's engaged.
- Marie Truffle: I don't care whether he's engaged, married, or divorced. I've got to see him now.
