Quotes

Perfect Strangers

Edit
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: Now what happens?
  • Robert (Bob) Fisher: They start picking the jury. Twelve men - and women, I hope. By the way, my name's Fisher, Bobby.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: And my name is Scott, Mrs.
  • David Campbell: How was your lunch with Mr. Fisher?
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: Stimulating. I learned all about bathing suits.
  • David Campbell: Why didn't you ask me?
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: Why? I don't swim.
  • David Campbell: I don't either.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: My position at Webb's Furniture Stores is a responsible one and, eh...
  • Jury Registrar Woman: We need people like you on our juries, Miss Scott.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: But, it took so long to convince the firm that I could handle...
  • Jury Registrar Woman: Men?
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: And furniture.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: Look at him. It makes no difference whether its ham sandwiches or mink coats. They're all alike. Just making the same old pitch.
  • David Campbell: For those fellows it doesn't make any difference whether the girl is brown-eyed or blue-eyed. Just as long as she's wide-eyed.
  • Lena Fassler: They got a murder waitin' for me, right this minute.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: Well, I'm glad for you.
  • Lena Fassler: Nothin' like a murder to take your mind off your problems.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: I thought you were fair and nice. Instead, you're just like Mrs. Bradford, smug and opinionated. Well, you're opinionations don't sway me.
  • David Campbell: There's no such word.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: Well, there ought to be.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: I'm a juror, not a woman.
  • Robert (Bob) Fisher: Oh, honey bun.
  • Isobel Bradford: One would think you weren't a woman.
  • Lena Fassler: With five kids and one on the way, I'm a woman alright.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: Saturday, I work all day. Sunday, I wash all day - so, I can get everything dirty the next week.
  • Robert (Bob) Fisher: Don't get the message to Gladys mixed up with the message to Jane. And when you call Alice, if a man answers, its Alice. She's got a deep voice.
  • Robert (Bob) Fisher: I never knew a girl like Terry before. I keep wanting to protect her from guys like me.
  • Robert (Bob) Fisher: Mothers don't like me. Now, when a respectable guy like you meets a streamliner like Scott, what does he do about it? Nothing. But, a slob like me...
  • David Campbell: Gets nowhere.
  • Robert (Bob) Fisher: Oh, oh. Women like slobs. Any slob knows that. They like to reform 'em. I think I'll let Scott reform me.
  • Lester Hubley: I have a gardening business. I left this business in the hands of a man who doesn't know a petunia from an aspidistra!
  • David Campbell: Terry, you're not making sense.
  • Theresa (Terry) Scott: You fall in love with a married man sometime and see how much sense you make.
  • David Campbell: If you love me you'll do as I say - with no questions. Will you?
