Job Skeffington:
[to Fanny, when she reprimands him for being unfaithful] You mustn't be too harsh on my secretaries. They were always very understanding when I came to the office after a hard day at home.
Job Skeffington:
A woman is beautiful when she's loved, and only then.

Dr. Byles:
I'm sorry to have to have to be so blunt with you, Mrs. Skeffington, but you're one of a vast army of silly women. Capital "S". Capital "W". You're over dressed, you're over made-up and you're most certainly over perfumed.

Fanny Trellis Skeffington: I strongly suspect that you are neither!
