- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: You might have thought you were romancing with a chauffeur; but, you never told me to put on any brakes.
- Leonidus Giovanni 'Butch' Gonzola: This dame lures me up here to slap me in the pus with a subpoenie. I oughta to be a fan-dancer myself!
- Ginger Stewart: You know what he said to me? He said you're eyes are like two teaspoons full of the Mediterranean.
- Dixie Tilton: Who did? The guy from Baltimore?
- Ginger Stewart: No. Carter did.
- Dixie Tilton: Well, it'd be a lot better to have those eyes of yours called two big gold pieces by some guy that's got the gold.
- Ginger Stewart: I'm sick of this whole racket of ours. Running around at night spots and parties and always workin' on some man. Especially when you find someone you - like.
- Men's Club Attendant: But, ladies, in here is for men only.
- Dixie Tilton: You see, we're looking for a man - Mr. J.J. Wellington.
- Men's Club Attendant: Oh, you can't see him. He's in the steam cabinet and the massage room.
- Dixie Tilton: [to Ginger] Come on!
- Men's Club Attendant: Please, ladies! No ladies in there either. But, but, ladies.
- Claire LeClaire: Listen, slug.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: You mean me? Me?
- Claire LeClaire: Yeah. You chiselin' shyster, I mean you. Quite tryin' to give Mazie the ol' stall-a-roo.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: These subpoenas must be served immediately. You know, the Senate has already passed a law banning all breach of promise suits and it becomes effective very soon.
- Ginger Stewart: Yes, but we're not talking about subpoenies. We're talking about quitting!
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: I'll give you fifty dollars a piece to serve these subpoenies.
- Dixie Tilton: Make it a hundred. A hundred for each summons.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: I can't do it.
- Dixie Tilton: Why can't you do it? It's a half a million dollar case. Why can't you go four hundred?
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: I can't afford it!
- Dixie Tilton: Well, then make it five hundred.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: Now you're cheating yourself. Now you're cheating yourself.
- Dixie Tilton: All right. All right. We'll settle on a thousand. A thousand for the whole mess!
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: Well, that's fine! That's fine.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: It gives me pleasure to send forth two young ladies with such noble ambitions.
- Ginger Stewart: I've got the nobleness. She's got the ambition.
- Dixie Tilton: For a thousand dollars we'll make a sap out of any man!
- Ginger Stewart: Get this straight, you didn't make me change my mind. I quit quitting on account of that thousand dollars. As soon as we get those four subpoenas served, I'm through!
- Lawyer Stephen 'Dinsy' Dinsmore: There's an old saying that youth is such a marvelous thing, it's too bad it's given to us when we're too young to appreciate it.
- Lawyer Stephen 'Dinsy' Dinsmore: It seems rather sad that with the money you've inherited, from your highly lamented father, that you didn't inherit his tendency to increase the family fortune; rather, than your tendency to decrease it - by excessive donations to the opposite sex!
- Lawyer Stephen 'Dinsy' Dinsmore: You might very well join me in advising him that in youth, in flinging, need not necessarily fling money in such large gobs into the laps of undeserving women.
- Lawyer Stephen 'Dinsy' Dinsmore: If you'd growl like that at Miss Claire LeClaire, instead of cooing, she wouldn't now be suing you for a half-million dollars.
- Lawyer Stephen 'Dinsy' Dinsmore: My final remark is this, that you immediately take your yacht for a trip or vice-a-versa.
- Jevons, Courtney's Butler: It's a young lady, sir. She wishes to speak to - Carter.
- Lawyer Stephen 'Dinsy' Dinsmore: Your little lady from the park.
- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: Now, this girl's different.
- Lawyer Stephen 'Dinsy' Dinsmore: You mean, they all work differently.
- Dixie Tilton: Don't you think you better turn on the heat?
- Ginger Stewart: What's the matter? Your feet getting cold?
- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: You know, Jevons, its ghastly being cooped up here like this. I'm bored!
- Jevons, Courtney's Butler: Aren't we all, sir?
- Leonidus Giovanni 'Butch' Gonzola: Have you heard the sad news yet? They slapped Phil Logan with papers in that breach of promise suit that LeClare's tomato brought against him.
- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: Well, how about you? You're pretty well protected, aren't you?
- Leonidus Giovanni 'Butch' Gonzola: Listen, a process server couldn't get within yodelin' distance to me without gettin' his tonsils kicked out.
- Butch's Mug: What do you want with him?
- Ginger Stewart: Why he wanted something with me.
- Butch's Mug: I wonder what that could be?
- Ginger Stewart: I know, he wanted to make me a fan dancer in his cabaret. He promised.
- Policeman Clancy O'Rourke: Well, I better be going.
- Dixie Tilton: Oh, why should you be going? You're not going to be catching any Public Enemies tonight. Unless a blonde like me's a Public Enemy.
- Policeman Clancy O'Rourke: Sittin' hear ain't going to get me made a Sergeant.
- Dixie Tilton: Oh, Clancy, sit down. Your best chance of promotion's right here.
- Ginger Stewart: You all take your carcass out to his squattin' place and tell him there's a coupla gals out here from Dixie.
- Big Doorman: Say, what are you talkin' about?
- Ginger Stewart: We ain't talkin' about nobody but old Man Mountain Dean his self.
- Dixie Tilton: We's women folk members of the old Dean clan.
- Ginger Stewart: From the western sort of part of North Carolina.
- Dixie Tilton: Man Mountain figurin' he can't win unless first he catches little Emmy Lou here before he starts a fight.
- Ginger Stewart: That's right! He never coulda licked my Pa if he ain't first scratched my back.
- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: A nice mess this is. I have to run away from the girl I love, just because I don't love another one.
- Dixie Tilton: I beg your pardon. Is this Mr. Courtney's apartment, by any chance?
- Jevons, Courtney's Butler: I rather think it is, Miss. May I ask who is inquiring?
- Dixie Tilton: Rather. Miss Rowena Twinkingham of the Junior League.
- Jevons, Courtney's Butler: The Junior League, Miss?
- Dixie Tilton: Yes. Yes. The younger daughter of National League, you know.
- Jevons, Courtney's Butler: Is my Master familiar with you?
- Dixie Tilton: I beg your pardon!
- Jevons, Courtney's Butler: I mean with your mission. I'll inquire.
- Dixie Tilton: [singing] We're in the money, Ta-da Ta-da-da
- Dixie Tilton, Ginger Stewart: Ta-Ta-Ta-Da Da-da-da Da-da-da-da-daaa
- Dixie Tilton: Dum.
- Young Sailor #1: It's a dame!
- Young Sailor #2: And good lookin' too!
- Young Sailor #1: You said it!
- Ginger Stewart: Why don't you try growing up!
- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: Ha! It's you that's going to do the growing - thinner.
- Ginger Stewart: I eat only when you put me ashore and not until!
- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: Then you're gonna lose a lot of those curves of yours; because, we're going to be away at sea two weeks.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: Have you any other profession outside of being Mr. Courtney's front?
- Singer Phil Logan: Oh, I sing a bit on the side.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: On the side? Which side?
- Dixie Tilton: Well, let this be a lesson to you. Never go on trips without a toothbrush and a camera.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: Do you still want it to go on the record that you deny that you do not know this young lady? Or do you or don't you or do you? Answer me yes or no. Answer me yes of no.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: It's an outrage! You made a promise and you broke it and you gotta keep it broken. There!
- Judge: Gentlemen. Gentlemen. It seems to me that Mr. Courtney is doing the right and proper thing.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: The right and proper thing, your honor? This is a breach of promise suit! Without a breach it doesn't look very promising to me!
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: When I first went into the law business, I went up like a skyrocket! And now, what?
- Dixie Tilton: You came down like the stick.
- Claire LeClaire: We want to be married right away!
- Justice of the Peace: Do you know that 14 and 6/10 per cent of marriages don't last a year?
- Claire LeClaire: It makes no difference! We are not like the others, are we Dickie?
- C. Richard Courtney, aka Carter: No, certainly not.
- Claire LeClaire: Why you double-crossing stool pigeon! You'll go to the hoosegow for this.
- Lawyer Homer Bronson: You'll go, I mean, I'll go, you'll go.
- [first lines]
- The Little Boy in the Park: [running up to his nanny and pointing at Ginger and Richard kissing on a park bench] Look miss, look. Nanny what are those people doin'?
- The Nanny in the Park: [slightly shocked at the sight of them] lCome along, don't ask questions.
- The Little Boy in the Park: [in irritatingly childlike sing-song voice] Nanny doedn't know, Nanny doedn't know, nanny doedn't know, nanny doedn't know...
- [trails off as she whisks him and the little girl out of the park]
- Ginger Stewart: I'm going to be busy and won't be able to see you.
- C. Richard Courtney aka Carter: I was wondering how I was going to break the same sad news to you.
- Ginger Stewart: You going on a trip?
- C. Richard Courtney aka Carter: Just a short one. But it'll clear up a lot of things, for us.
- Ginger Stewart: I have to go.
- C. Richard Courtney aka Carter: It'll be a long wait. But I guess there's nothing either of us can do about it.
- Ginger Stewart: Well, as long as it has to be, it's nice we both picked the same time. After that, things'll be different.
- C. Richard Courtney aka Carter: For both of us.
- Ginger Stewart: But you told me that you won't be a chauffeur for long.
- C. Richard Courtney aka Carter: That's right. In a few days, and I'll be out of this uniform.
- Ginger Stewart: Oh, I'm sorry. I like you in this uniform. But you won't tell me what you're gonna be?
- C. Richard Courtney aka Carter: Well, you won't even tell me what you are now.
- Ginger Stewart: It doesn't matter. Cause what I am now I'm not gonna be for long, either.
