  • Dick Tracy: Did you say who you were?
  • Pat Patton: No! Do you think I'm that dumb?
  • Dick Tracy: Well, we won't go into that.
  • Dick Tracy: Where have you been?
  • Pat Patton: If I told you, you wouldn't believe me.
  • Dick Tracy: Well, don't tell me.
  • Pat Patton: I'll tell you anyway.
  • Simon Little: Why you-you fool! You big, stupid, blundering fool!
  • Harry 'Cueball' Lake: Shaddup!
  • Simon Little: You killed him... you murdered Abbott! Why did you kill him? Why? Why?
  • Harry 'Cueball' Lake: 'Cause he was gonna plug me. Okay. I got the diamonds - where's my dough?
  • Simon Little: Keep the diamonds... go to the chair with them. I won't touch them.
  • Harry 'Cueball' Lake: You rat!
  • [Tess objects to Junior reading about a gory murder in the newspaper]
  • Dick Tracy: Tess is right, Junior. Say, how would you like a lifetime job showing Junior what to read?
  • Tess: Why, Dick Tracy. Proposing so early in the morning?
  • Junior Tracy: Why don't ya just marry him so he can stop proposin'?
  • [Tess observes four beautiful women leave Dick Tracy's office]
  • Tess: I can see that police work might be *very* interesting.
  • Dick Tracy: Now, Tess, those were policewomen.
  • Vitamin Flintheart: Policewomen? Ha! A man is confronted with jeopardy from all sides.
  • Filthy Flora, Dripping Dagger Proprietor: I thought they put ya away for ten years.

  • Harry 'Cueball' Lake: Not where I was, it don't!
  • Vitamin Flintheart: What a pity. Why do the young have all the youth?
  • Vitamin Flintheart: [as four policewomen enter Tracy's office] It appears that the great Tracy is about to become innundated by an avalanche of feminine pulchritude.
