Quotes 

  • Ethel Mertz : [Lucy is miffed that she's excluded from Ricky's spread in Life Magazine except for a close-up of her arm holding Little Ricky]  Hey, twenty million people read this magazine. Why, your arm will be famous.

    Lucy Ricardo : [sarcastically]  Thanks.

    Ethel Mertz : Oh, don't be so unhappy. Think of how much good it'll do Ricky's career.

    Lucy Ricardo : Oh, sure. What about *my* career.

    Ethel Mertz : You don't have a career.

    Lucy Ricardo : Exactly. And why? Publicity like this.

    Ethel Mertz : Oh, now Lucy.

    Lucy Ricardo : It's a wonder I've got where I am.

    Ethel Mertz : Where are you?

    Lucy Ricardo : Oh, shut up!

  • Lucy Ricardo : It's only because of Little Ricky that I want to get my break in show business.

    Ricky Ricardo : Well, I know I'm going to be sorry I asked this, but how do you figure?

    Lucy Ricardo : Well, you just think ahead a little bit. When Little Ricky goes to school, and some of his playmates asks who his parents are...

    Ricky Ricardo : Yeah...

    Lucy Ricardo : ...just what is he going to have to say? 'My father is Ricky Ricardo, the internationally-known entertainer. And then there's my mother, whose name escapes me for the moment.'
