- Millicent: Oh, Willie, you've got to wake up. Other men are doing things, why can't you?
- Willie: Well, what about our home? We've got a car and a radio and a vacuum cleaner.
- Millicent: There's a mortgage on - on the home! The vacuum cleaner's worn out and the car's practically a wreck!
- Willie: The radio okay?
- Millicent: All in the world I want, Willie, is, is just one thing in my husband that I could brag about.
- Willie: Now, you ought not keep a loaded gun around the house like this. You can never tell. It might have bullets in it.
- Uncle Henry: [Talking on the phone] In case you don't know it, you've committed a penal offense. Sure, we can send you to Sing-Sing!
- City Editor: Is that the First Edition? Well, it's a hot story for the front page of New York newspaper! Holy jumpin' Moses, haven't we got anything better than that?
- Willie: [tying a noose to hang himself]
- Rocky: As long as you're going to do it yourself, let me see that knot. Well, that ain't no good. A friend of mine back in Kansas City hung hisself with a knot like this and just barely made it.
- Willie: Did he manage it single-handed?
- Rocky: No, not exactly. There was a couple other guys and the warden.
