Jane Stacy : I wonder if Steve's photogenic.
Irma Peterson : Why of course not. He's as healthy as a horse.

Irma Peterson : Oh, Al, did you see the moon?
Al : Why, is it missing?
-
Jane Stacy : Irma, are you keeping something from me that I should know?
Irma Peterson : Jane, you can beat me, you can torture me, you can rack me on the wheel, you can quarter me into six and a half pieces, but you'll never find out from me that Yvonne, the French actress, is responsible for Steve singing at the Lucky Dollar Club.
-
Irma Peterson : Oh, when I think of marrying you, I could stay sick forever.
-
Irma Peterson : Although I've been engaged for five years, I've never had any children. I wanna be a mother.
Pete : It'd be better for your kids if I bump you off.
-
Irma Peterson : You didn't say anything about my new bathing suit.
Al : You got one on?
Irma Peterson : Oh, Al, don't you pay any attention?
Al : Chicken, with the problems I've got on my mind, you could be wearing a suit of armor and I wouldn't notice.

Al : Now, chicken, run along and rejoice in your good fortune. Before long you will be Mrs. Al.
Irma Peterson : Oh, Mrs. Al.

Irma Peterson : [after they see Yvonne kiss Steve on TV] Oh, don't be upset, Jane. That's just the French way of shaking hands. I... it's like when the Germans are leaving and they say, 'gesundheit.'
-
Irma Peterson : Oh, don't be angry at Jane. Remember, it's better to give than receive.
Al : What has that got to do with this murderous situation?
Irma Peterson : Oh, nothing, Al. I just thought it was a good time to quote someone.

Irma Peterson : Well, Jane, you're wrong. He wasn't a quack doctor. He's a lumberjack.
