Robert Harley Hedges: [to Eva] Keep your health, your money, and your head, Eva, if you want to go on.

- C. Aubrey Smith (as Robert Harley 'Bob' Hedges) in Morning Glory (1933)

Robert Harley Hedges: Youth has its hour of glory... but too often it's only a morning glory, the flower that fades before the sun is very high.

- C. Aubrey Smith (as Robert Harley 'Bob' Hedges) in Morning Glory (1933)

Rita Vernon: You know, the only way to live through a party like this is to get good and tight.

- Mary Duncan (as Rita Vernon, blonde star) in Morning Glory (1933)

Eva Lovelace: Every year, in every theater, some young person makes a hit. Sometimes it's a big hit, cometimes a little one. It's a distinct success, but how many of them keep their heads? How many of them work? Youth comes to the fore. Youth has its hour of glory. But too often it's only a morning glory - a flower that fades before the sun is very high.

- Katharine Hepburn (as Eva Lovelace) in Morning Glory (1933)

Eva Lovelace: I hope you're going to tell me your name. I want you for my first friend in New York. Mine's Eva Lovelace. It's partly made up and partly real. It was Ada Love. Love's my family name. I added the 'lace.' Do you like it, or would you prefer something shorter? A shorter name would be more convenient on a sign. Still, 'Eva Lovelace in Camille,' for instance, or 'Eva Lovelace in Romeo and Juliet' sounds very distinguished, doesn't it?

- Katharine Hepburn (as Eva Lovelace) in Morning Glory (1933)

Eva Lovelace: I'm not afraid! I'm not afraid of being a morning glory!
Eva Lovelace: Oh, Nellie, I'm not afraid!

- Katharine Hepburn (as Eva Lovelace) in Morning Glory (1933)

Eva Lovelace: Nellie, they've all been trying to frighten me. They've been trying to frighten me into being sensible, but they can't do it. Not now. Not yet. They've got to let me be as foolish as I want to be. I-I want to ride through the crowd. I want to- I want to go buy me a mink coat. And I'll buy you a beautiful present. And Mr. Hedges! I'll buy Mr. Hedges a little house. And it'll have rooms full of white orchids. And they've got to tell me that I'm much more wonderful than anyone else because, Nellie - Nellie, I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid of being just a morning glory. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid. Why should I be afraid? I'm not afraid.

- Katharine Hepburn (as Eva Lovelace) in Morning Glory (1933)

Louis Easton: [to Eva] Please, Eva, you must put me out of your heart. I don't belong there, and you don't belong in mine. I'm not the man for you. I never was. You don't belong to any man now. You belong to Broadway, theater, lights.

- Adolphe Menjou (as Louis) in Morning Glory (1933)

Louis Easton: What is your name?
Eva Lovelace: Eva Lovelace. Like it? I can change it if you don't.

- Katharine Hepburn (as Eva Lovelace) in Morning Glory (1933)

Charlie Van Duesen: You're the best young actress in America.
Rita Vernon: I know that.
