Quotes
-
Cynthia Warren : Oh, Olga, have you ever been in love?
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : Many times.
Cynthia Warren : Tell me about it.
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : Men are all alike - one day they kiss you... and the next day they kick you.
Cynthia Warren : Well, you can see them every other day, can't you?
-
Randolph Morgan : That mob you have up there gets into my hair.
Cynthia Warren : Oh, they do? Well, what's the matter with my friends?
Randolph Morgan : Well, you'll find out - if you ever run out of liquor.
-
Cynthia Warren : Here's your sketch.
Randolph Morgan : Nice job, Cynthia - especially the legs.
Cynthia Warren : They've got nice faces too.
Randolph Morgan : Who ever looks at the faces?
-
Randolph Morgan : I didn't write the rules of this game of sex. I don't even say they are fair. But, there they are - and neither of us can rewrite them.
Cynthia Warren : You're a narrow minded, stubborn, egotistical, fatuous, detestable...
Randolph Morgan : Just say man and be done with it.
Cynthia Warren : Man!
-
Randolph Morgan : The trouble with you is, you're all swollen up with that silly little success of yours.
Cynthia Warren : I didn't work for success. I worked for freedom. And I got it! You're jealous of it. You want me to surrender it just because I'm a woman.
Randolph Morgan : Freedom. Biologically, because you are a woman, you're licked before you start.
-
Cynthia Warren : Are you going to England on business?
William Lawton : Well, no. No, not exactly. My grandfather had business interests there. He had a branch factory. You see, he made corsets. Yes, skads of them.
Cynthia Warren : So, you owe your success to corsets.
William Lawton : Quite. I'm afraid if the old gentleman were alive today, he would be forced to manufacture, eh...
Cynthia Warren : I know. I wear them.
-
Captain : I have so little spare time in the crossing, but, if you wish to do me, why...
Cynthia Warren : I'd love to - do you.
-
Cynthia Warren : I suppose you came down to apologize.
Randolph Morgan : Apologize for what?
Cynthia Warren : For what? For your outrageous conduct, for your stupid, childish, caveman tactics! Why, if it hadn't been for your watchman, I'd have missed my boat.
Randolph Morgan : What do you think I locked you in the closet for?
-
William Lawton : I shall see you at dinner, if I may.
Cynthia Warren : Order me a plate of moonlight on the half shell.
[wink]
-
Cynthia Warren : I think I'm going to like you if you don't run out of compliments.
-
Cynthia Warren : You're just old fashioned. This is 1933, not 1833. Times have changed.
-
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : Just getting up or going to bed?
Cynthia Warren : Both.
-
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : [cocktail toast] Here's to that inferior animal: man.
Cynthia Warren : To his ultimate defeat.
-
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : Take two men. If one of them fell in love with a girl and the other one knew that his friend was making a mistake, he'd tell, wouldn't he?
Cynthia Warren : Why, of course he would.
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : Not always.
-
William Lawton : Oh, Cynthia, I want so much to show you England in spring when the first primroses crowd the riverbanks.
Cynthia Warren : I must be *lovely*.
-
Cynthia Warren : Love is the only thing women give that they don't bargain for.
-
William Lawton : At night it's so quiet. No one about to watch. You can slip into the water with scarcely a ripple and swim silently like a white ghost. And the water caresses your body with the - like the soft touch of a woman's hand.
Cynthia Warren : Oh, Billy. You don't know what you're doing to me.
-
Cynthia Warren : I'm more accustomed to painting leggy females.
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : Oh, you say that as if you dislike women.
Cynthia Warren : Well, I can't say I'm crazy about them. Are you?
Olga Raimoff aka Tessie Burns : They bore me. Also, they dislike me and I'm human enough to resent when I am resented. Do stay and have a cocktail with me.
-
Cynthia Warren : [singing] Remember this, Any kiss, Loses it's bliss, When it's only saying goodbye...
-
Cynthia Warren : A little late with your moonlight, Billy.
William Lawton : I shall have some caught up in bottles, Cynthia, so you'll always have moonbeams to sprinkle in your hair.
Cynthia Warren : You're sure your grandfather made corsets? He didn't write poetry, did he?
William Lawton : As a matter of fact, he did. Secretly, of course. So many men are ashamed of any refinements they have.
Cynthia Warren : [looking down at Billy's crotch] You don't parade yours.
William Lawton : Mine wants developing. You could do that easily, Cynthia.
-
William Lawton : The river runs clear. Rupert Brooke, the poet, swam there. Before him, Alfred Lord Byron.
Cynthia Warren : Egotists. Both of them.
William Lawton : Yes. But women love them greatly.
-
Cynthia Warren : Oh, Olga, I feel - utterly degraded. Dirty. Run a shower for me, will you?
-
Cynthia Warren : Do you think that every woman should be married?
Barfly : I certainly do. That's all what the sex is good for.
-
Cynthia Warren : I wonder what a man would do in a case like this?
William Lawton : Grab himself the first dizzy blonde he met, go somewhere, and get ossified.
Cynthia Warren : Not a bad idea.
-
Cynthia Warren : I'm going to get *so* cockeyed tonight that they'll have to put me to bed with a sponge.
-
Cynthia Warren : Happiness is something that you got to take for granted.
-
Cynthia Warren : Your sense of comedy is even lower than your sense of decency.
-
Cynthia Warren : Hey, leave my end alone. Take care of your own end.
-
Cynthia Warren : You are a rotter, aren't you.
-
Cynthia Warren : I would like to thank you for all you've done.
Randolph Morgan : It was nothing. I'd have done the same for any American.
Cynthia Warren : Or Chinaman, for that matter.
-
Mrs. Pat Lawton : So, you paint all those stunning girls that advertise my favorite brand of American cigarettes?
Cynthia Warren : Most of them.
Mrs. Pat Lawton : Where in the world do you find all those good looking legs?
Cynthia Warren : Well, you see, I paint my own.
