RUTH: June is wondering what to do for summer vacation.
GREG: She's not coming out here is she?
RUTH: Are you mad? It's shabby and pretty low, that's the best you can say for it, but June's all I have.
GREG: All you have?
RUTH: You know what I mean. I want her to keep thinking I'm tops. You know I think I'd die if she ever suspected her mother ran an escort bureau.

SNUGGLES: Oh what a night! My head!
RITA: What time did you stagger in this morning?
SNUGGLES: I don't know. The hands on the clock were stuck.
SUZIE: Well from what I saw that's the only pair that were. Say, did you see what present her playmate left her?
RITA (looking at the bruise): Say, your boyfriend certainly didn't have the pause that refreshes-sure trademarked you plenty. And look at that beauty on your shoulder.
OTHER GIRL: Looks to me like you were out with a tattoo artist.

SUZIE: Who are you with?
SNUGGLES: A gentleman whose wife don't understand him.
SUZIE: Honey, that's what they all say. You better pull yourself together before Breezy sees you.
SNUGGLES: What's the matter? Ain't I doin' what he said? He said, the customer's always right!
SUZIE: Yes, but you're supposed to say no once in a while.
SNUGGLES: I did say no. I said no, no, no, no. But he said yes, yes, yes, yes.
SUZIE: Well, it's your party, but did he pay you in advance?
SNUGGLES: Certainly-oooh.... That's funny. I put it in my stocking. Now what do you suppose...
SUZIE: You better go back and get it and this time put it somewhere safe. But as long as you're with Wolfie, I don't know where that would be.

DRAKE: Do you want to dance?
JUNE: No. Let's just sit here and feel sorry for all the people who aren't as happy as we are.

SUZIE: Well, there we were, wrestling in the cab. So, finally I said to him, "You're no gentleman, you big gorilla."
SNUGGLES: I keep telling them that all the time but it never does any good.
SUZIE: Well, we finally broke the Half Nelson, and I froze and then he started to beef but plenty.
SNUGGLES: Ooooh, I always get frightened when they get angry.
SUZIE: Well, anyway, there we were. So finally I said to him, "Look, what do you want for $10?" And before I could do anything about it, he laid a twenty right in my lap!
RITA: With his hand still on it, no doubt.
SUZIE: Now, honey, live and let live is my motto. Besides he wasn't such a bad guy. Once you got to know him.
SNUGGLES: But if he wasn't a gentleman, when did you say no?
SUZIE: Who said no?

JUNE: Escort bureaus have become an obsession with you!

GREG: Life is hard and pitiless, and you have to face it the same way.
JUNE: That takes courage.
GREG: I can show you how to face life and come out on top. Are you cold?
JUNE: Cold-inside.
