Patsy : Listen to this: "Why was it that I chose to roam? Cross land and sea, so far from home. If that be life, my mutter dear, I send this card, of love and cheer. Mutter's Day, number 37." That touches ya, ya know that. Right here.
Mabel : Yeah. Like seein' a good, sad movie, ain't it. Gee.
Patsy : You know, this Erwin guy ain't bein' appreciated.
-
Patsy : Erwin, this is the little woman!
Erwin Trowbridge : How do you do? Miss...
Mabel : Just call me Mabel, Erwin. Any friend of Patsy's is a friend of mine.
Patsy : I've often suspected that.
-
Mabel : Let me think! I know I ain't got the brains for it; but, you'd be surprised what I can do with materials at hand.
-
Harry, the Bartender : Well, what's the matter with him?
Mabel : I don't know, but he's the most relaxed son-of-a-gun I ever saw. Maybe we should give him another drink?
Harry, the Bartender : What do you want to do - embalm him?
-
Mabel : You want to see it? You want to see it?
Erwin Trowbridge : Well, eh, yes.
Mabel : Say, I'd do anything for you. Cause I'm just *crazy* about poetry! That's why. I got to get limbered up, though. Now, here we go.
-
Patsy : Say, what is this?
Erwin Trowbridge : She's dizzy.
Mabel : I'm dizzy, Patsy.
Patsy : You must be to try and double-cross me. Get back to your room before I kick your teeth in!
-
Mabel : I'm surprised at you Patsy, tearin' up poems! Gee, there must be an unrefined streak in you, somewheres.
-
Patsy : There you are, pal. I had it made up special.
[hands Erwin a tie]
Erwin Trowbridge : I thought perhaps you did. Maybe I better take one of your less expensive ones.
Patsy : Put it on! Put it on! It tones you up a bit.
Mabel : Yeah, like a Calliope!

Mabel : [after hocking her dress] I've taken off more clothes for the horses than I ever did for the Shuberts.
