Quotes
-
Charles Masters : This will be the first machine to go cross-country under its own power - if I make it. One day, there'll be one in every state, for everybody to drive!
Miss Rose Gillray : Even women?
Charles Masters : Well, no. No, not women. They're not coordinated like men.
Miss Rose Gillray : In deed?
Charles Masters : They're - well, they're built different.
Miss Rose Gillray : That is beside the point! If this contraption proves practical, even women will drive them.
Charles Masters : Well, then they'll have to build special roads for women drivers.
-
Charles Masters : Gillray Corset Company. So, this is were you shape the woman of the future.
-
Miss Rose Gillray : Mr. Masters, you and I have something in common, in a rather remote way. You think that the horse is on it's way out and I think that men's subjugation of women is too.
Charles Masters : Don't tell me you're one of those women who marches in parades and handcuffs herself to the iron fence in front of the White House?
Miss Rose Gillray : No, I have never done that. But, if I thought it would further women's rights one inch, believe me, I would do that and a great deal more.
-
Charles Masters : Happy emancipation, Miss Gillray.
Miss Rose Gillray : Oh, don't worry about me, Mr. Masters. I'm going to do a history-making of my own.
-
Charles Masters : The public is always ready and waiting for the unusual and beautiful.
-
Miss Rose Gillray : It may be just a wild guess, but, I would say there's something wrong with the machinery?
Charles Masters : Oh, you noticed that too, did you.
Miss Rose Gillray : Ah, sort of.
-
Charles Masters : May I ask where you keep your - machine shop?
Miss Rose Gillray : Not unless you're begging for a slap.
-
Miss Rose Gillray : How fast are we going?
Charles Masters : Twelve miles an hour! Maybe I better slow down a little.
-
Miss Rose Gillray : [Charlie kisses Rose] And, what was that for, Mr. Masters?
Charles Masters : To find out if you're real.
[Rose kisses Charlie]
Charles Masters : And what was that for, Miss Gillray?
Miss Rose Gillray : To remove all doubt.
-
Charles Masters : What'll I do with your corset stay when I finish with it?
Miss Rose Gillray : Find a girl my size and give it to her for Christmas!
-
Miss Rose Gillray : If you had any sense of decency, you'd get up and go.
Charles Masters : Who don't you trust? You or me? I'd sure like to find out sometime.
-
Miss Rose Gillray : I'm running short of corset stays.
Charles Masters : Well, maybe, someday.
Molly Wade : Maybe, someday, what?
Charles Masters : Maybe someday Miss Gillray will let a man give a helping hand. Well, keep smiling.
-
Charles Masters : Miss Wade, you're apparently unaware that women's rights entitle you not only to live like a man, but, to die like one too.
-
Charles Masters : Don't worry. I sent it by special messenger - an Indian named Straight Arrow.
Molly Wade : Well, if you can't trust a man named Straight Arrow, I guess you can't trust anybody.
Charles Masters : Right and he'll be off tomorrow as soon as he steals a horse.
-
Charles Masters : Oh, come on, Rose, you're bucking nature. Men are men and women are women.
Molly Wade : The honest truth. I wouldn't change it for the world.
-
Miss Rose Gillray : You too, Charlie?
Charles Masters : What do you mean? Me too?
-
Miss Rose Gillray : You're all alike. You, Carter, Joel Kingdom, big ranchers, little ranchers, salesmen, even Indian braves - all smug, self-appointed lords of creation who'se women like their children can be, seen but not heard. But all of that is going to change! Even in a little place like Spur's Ridge. Because I'm not the only woman with the little dramas, you call it, that keeps on beating it until it's heard.
Charles Masters : Oh, well that's what's been keeping me awake at nights. I thought it was my heart.
Miss Rose Gillray : Oh, Charlie, spare me the jokes. Do I make fun of you and your belief in that contraption of yours - that runs on my corset stays?
