Joan Gordon, aka Francine La Rue:
I've been up and down Broadway since I was fifteen years old. I'm fed up with hoofing in shows. I'm sick of night clubs, hustlers, bootleggers, chislers, and smart guys. I've heard all the questions and I know all the answers. And I've kept myself... fairly respectable through it all. The whole atmosphere of this street gives me a high-powered headache. I've got a chance to breathe something else, and boy, I'm grabbing it.
Eddie 'Ed' Fields: Pick up the marbles, hon, you win.
Joan Gordon, aka Francine La Rue: [Hands him some jewelry] By the way, here's a couplea trinkets I want to return to you. Might as well do it now.
Eddie 'Ed' Fields: Sure you don't want to keep this hardware?
Joan Gordon, aka Francine La Rue: Positive.
[Reaches into a drawer, takes out a key, and hands it to him]
Eddie 'Ed' Fields: All through playing house?
Joan Gordon, aka Francine La Rue: All through, Eddie. Thanks.

Joan Gordon, aka Francine La Rue: [Almost smiling, softly] Yeah.

[after losing the argument with Richard, when their daughter decides not to stay with her mother in Michigan but to return to Europe with her father on the next boat] Thank you, Richard. You were most helpful. Now you see why I wanted to steal a little more time.

Julia Sturges: That's the tragic part, Richard. There's been so much love lost between us.
Richard Sturges: Please, Julia. Let's not bicker, since there's no love lost between us.

Kitty Lane:
[waiting on David at the diner] ... How come *you* never annoyed me?
David Livingston: Well, I don't like to compete with the whole college.
Kitty Lane: If I owned this joint I'd bust ya in the nose for that.
David Livingston: [looking up from the book he has been studying] Yes, and if I were your brother instead of a customer here, I'd spank you. I'd like to finish this chapter.
Kitty Lane: Well, go ahead, finish it someplace else where they burn incense or something.
David Livingston: Alright, I will. I don't like this place anyhow. You may be hot, but the coffee's cold.
[gets up to leave]
