  Henry Lathrop : I just didn't want to get... uh romantic.

  Ginger Gray : Oh you just didn't want to get "UH" romantic. What are you saving it for?

• Ginger Gray : You are the most precocious, overconfident, spoiled young man, I've ever had the misfortune to meet.

  Danny Churchill, Jr. : I think you're cute too.

  Danny Churchill, Jr. : Wait a minute. Now it's my turn. Did anyone tell you that you've got a face like a two-week vacation - with pay? Did anyone ever tell you you've got a nose cute enough to write a song about? Did anyone tell you when a girl like you starts talking about a fellow like me it means only one thing, that you're falling madly in love with him?

• Danny Churchill, Jr. : Practically every college in the country was made famous by some event. And you know what's going to be the springboard for Cody College? A Western rodeo. Once a year we'll bring back the West. Daniel Boone!

  Ginger Gray : Jesse James and Buffalo Bill.

  Danny Churchill, Jr. : A hundred beautiful girls

  Ginger Gray : On horseback.

  Danny Churchill, Jr. : Glorious costumes. Happy. Carefree.
