Quotes

Man of the Moment

Edit
  • Mary Brianny: He talked to me yesterday.
  • Mary's Landlady: What'd he say?
  • Mary Brianny: Well, not very much. He only said there were two f's in paraffin, but he said it very nicely.
  • Mary's Landlady: These office affairs ain't any good. All shorthand and no marriage lines.
  • Mr. Rumcorn: Oh, we're wearing a new frock, aren't we?
  • Mary Brianny: Yes, uh huh, at least... well, I don't know about you.
  • Mr. Rumcorn: Uh, vanity, vanity, all is vanity.
  • Mr. Rumcorn: Miss Brianny, may I speak to you seriously for a moment?
  • Mary Brianny: Oh, must you? I'm feeling so happy this morning.
  • Tony Woodward: It's either a fortune for both of us, or a grave in the deep blue sea.
  • Tom - Office Clerk: Oh, what's that?
  • Mary Brianny: It's my lunch, if you want to know.
  • Tom - Office Clerk: I thought it was only bees that had flowers for lunch.
  • Mary Brianny: I wish you'd let me alone.
  • Tony Woodward: I'll rescue you if I have to kill you to do it.
  • Tony Woodward: [Stops his car and shouts to Mary who's flapping around in the river] Excuse me, but I wouldn't drink that water if I were you. It hasn't been filtered.
  • Mary Brianny: I'm drowning myself.
  • Tony Woodward: But it's against my principles. I never let people drown themselves in my presence.
  • Mary Brianny: Well then, go away.
