• Hedda Hopper : We've been friends for a long time. When did you become such a bastard?

  Kirk Douglas : I've always been a bastard. You just never noticed.

• Hedda Hopper : Now what do you do when you love something but it stops loving you back?

  Louis B. Mayer : You fight.

  Hedda Hopper : No, no, no. You love it more until it surrenders.

• Hedda Hopper : Now listen, Ed, we'll picket every theater that movie is in unless you pull the prints tonight, and you get that traitor's name off of it.

  Edward 'Ed' Muhl : Hedda, you can't put me in this position. That's expensive and pointless.

  Hedda Hopper : Then you can kiss your movie, your studio, and your miserable ass goodbye.

• Hedda Hopper : Forty years ago, you were starving in some shtetl. The greatest country on Earth takes you in, gives you wealth, power, but the second we need you, you do nothing. And that's exactly what my readers expect from a business run by kikes.

  Louis B. Mayer : Get out!

  Hedda Hopper : You know, L.B. I am fond of you. Some of my happiest years were spent on this lot. Not in your office, of course. You were always trying to fuck me on the couch. Me trying to maintain my virtue. Barely. But times change. Now I'd happily fuck you.
