Quotes 

• Ellen Gayley : Don't tell me you've been playing hooky all this time.

  Flip Gayley : Oh, no, mommy. Only the last four days.

  Ellen Gayley : Oh, Phil.

  Phil Gayley : Well, she's smarter than those other kids. I thought it only fair to let the rest of the class catch up with her.

• Phil Gayley : Ellen, I'm a little bit disappointed in you. Carousing around every dive in town. Wallowing in cocktails. Slipping home at 7 or 8 in the morning.

  Ellen Gayley : At least I waited until we were divorced.

  Phil Gayley : But, but, but, but... the old goat butted you right into Reno.

• Ellen Gayley : I can't understand it.

  Phil Gayley : What?

  Ellen Gayley : You sing like that and I married you.

• Phil Gayley : Luigi!

  Luigi : What?

  Phil Gayley : Nancy's here.

  Luigi : With who?

  Phil Gayley : With me. How do I get into these jams?

  Luigi : It's a gift.

• Phil Gayley : I don't care about Nancy. But I don't want her to start making a scene. You know how she is.

  Luigi : Sure. You take a girl out to dinner two or three hundred times and right away she thinks you're interested in her.

• McCarthy : [Enters Phil's studio and sees him painting trees]  Why do ya waste your time on this stuff for?

  Phil Gayley : Oh, just getting back to nature.

  McCarthy : There's more nature in one of them gorgeous girls you paint than in all them tired trees.

  Phil Gayley : Yeah, but I can't get in trouble with the trees.

  McCarthy : Oh, you've got a point there. Merry Christmas, Mr. Gayley.

• Flip Gayley : [as she and Phil walk away from his painting in the park]  You gonna leave your painting here?

  Phil Gayley : Oh, sure. Nobody'll take it. I wouldn't want a thing like that in my home.

• Phil Gayley : If only your mother had a jealous husband or something.

  Flip Gayley : She has.

  Phil Gayley : Who?

  Flip Gayley : You.

  Phil Gayley : Oh, yeah. I keep thinking I'm uncle Phil.

• Phil Gayley : I've never seen you look better, Ellen.

  Ellen Gayley : Oh, I don't know why. I haven't had decent night's sleep in months.

  Phil Gayley : Ah, insomnia?

  Ellen Gayley : No, parties.

  Phil Gayley : Ohhh.

  Ellen Gayley : Between cocktails here, and dinner there, and dancing someplace else, I just can't seem to get to bed before four in the morning.

  Phil Gayley : Oh, is that so? Maybe you're not trying.

• Phil Gayley : Now wait a minute. I'm asking all the right questions, but you're not giving the right answers.

• Sales woman in store : Incidentally, I've always thought that I should've been a professional model, Mr. Gayley. What do you think?

  Phil Gayley : The minute I looked at you, I said to myself, "Hmm."

  Sales woman in store : [Excitedly]  Mr. Gayley!

• Luigi : This would never happen in the Old Country.

  Phil Gayley : What Old Country?

  Luigi : Any Old Country.
