Quotes
-
Charlie Marsden : You're the only genuinely modest person I know, Sam.
Sam Evans : Who me? I'm the boob of the family. Except when it comes to business. I'll make the money, alright.
-
Sam Evans : How 'bout the old scout?
Charlie Marsden : Oh, he seemed fine, fellow. Yes, yes, he said he was having a gay time. When I saw him he was with a startling looking female. I gather he was quite involved.
-
Nina Leeds : Did she mind because Charlie Marsden drove us down here?
Sam Evans : Of course not, why should she?
Nina Leeds : I don't know? I thought she was rather upset when he decided to stay overnight.
[Inner thoughts]
Nina Leeds : She acted so queerly. Seemed anxious to get me alone.
Sam Evans : She's such a fussy old lady. She's probably afraid he'd criticize the bed sheets.
Nina Leeds : Ha-ha. He probably did!
-
Sam Evans : I've never been so happy in all my life. I tell you, marriage certainly puts the right kind of ambition into a fella. Unselfish ambition. You know, working for his wife and - perhaps, someone else, who knows?
-
Sam Evans : He's sick of being babied, Nina. You don't realize he's getting to be a big boy now. We want him to grow up into a real he-man, not an old lady like Charlie. Now, that's what's the matter with Charlie, I'll bet. His mother never stopped babying him.
Nina Leeds : Perhaps you're right, Sam.
Sam Evans : I know I'm right.
[Sam exits]
Nina Leeds : [Rolls her eyes] Oh, heaven grant that I may someday tell this fool the truth!
