Quotes
-
Harriette Winslow : What a miserable evening.
Carl Otis Winslow : Calm down, Harriette, you're overreacting.
Harriette Winslow : I am not! I don't ever want to go to that restaurant again
Carl Otis Winslow : [to himself] That's just was well because we might not be allowed to go back into that restaurant again.
Harriette Winslow : WHAT?
Carl Otis Winslow : Oh nothing, never mind!
Harriette Winslow : Oh no no no. Don't nothing, never mind me, Carl. If you have something to say, just spit it out.
Carl Otis Winslow : Alright Harriette, you were a liiiiiiiittle abrasive tonight.
Harriette Winslow : Abrasive? I was not abrasive.
Carl Otis Winslow : Well yeah. Maybe abrasive is the wrong word. Maybe a better word is Loud.
Harriette Winslow : LOUD?
Carl Otis Winslow : Like that. And you got LOUDER every time you made the Maitre D move us to another table.
Harriette Winslow : Carl, out first table was next to the entrance where everybody was waiting to be seated. I do not like 30 people hanging around my shoulder, saying "Hey Senora, can you eat a little faster?"
Carl Otis Winslow : I understand that. So they picked up all our stuff and moved us.
Harriette Winslow : Yeah. right next to the bathroom. Ordinarily, I like a table right next to the water. Not when it's swirling around a porcelain tank.
Carl Otis Winslow : I understand that. So they picked up all out stuff and moved us again.
Harriette Winslow : And deliberately sat us next to a cigar smoker.
Carl Otis Winslow : You know you were rude to that guy, Harriette.
Harriette Winslow : I simply put out his cigar.
Carl Otis Winslow : In his soup.
Harriette Winslow : Did I embarrass you, Carl? Is that the problem?
Carl Otis Winslow : Yes, Harriette! To be quite frank I was embarrassed and so were all the other customers.
Harriette Winslow : No, they weren't.
Carl Otis Winslow : Harriette, they applauded when we left. The valet gave me a tip.
Harriette Winslow : [retrieves a coupon from her purse] Ohhh no no no, Carl! You're wrong, the maitre'd gave me a two for one coupon.

Carl Otis Winslow : Look at it again, Harriette. It's to another restaurant.
Harriette Winslow : Carl I am not a weak, wimpy woman whose afraida to speak her mind. Whem I'm unhappy about something, I say so.
[removes Carl's napkin from his shirt and tosses it on the coffee table]
Harriette Winslow : And it would be nice if you would support me sometimes instead of hiding behind your napkin and caring what the other people think.
Carl Otis Winslow : I do not care what other people think.
Harriette Winslow : You most certainly do.
Carl Otis Winslow : I do not and keep your voice down the neighbors might hear you.
