  Ardis Delafield : [she laughs]  Sally, you're the old-fashioned, simple type. Nowadays, sophistication is the cry. Experience. Men aren't interested any longer in a sheet of virgin white paper. They want something with some writing on it.

  Sally Brown : Well how does one get experience? In a nice way, I mean.

  Ardis Delafield : Well, the only way to get experience in a nice way is to get married.

• Sally Brown : Every woman should be allowed at least one unhappy marriage. Just to get her started.
