Nina Martelli
- Nina Martelli: A man can't be a friend, he can be a brother, a father or a husband but not a friend.
- Mike Clark: Why don't you stay and have a drink with me?
- Nina Martelli: I don't drink.
- Mike Clark: You don't know what you're missing. Another double martini, bartender.
- Nina Martelli: [Nina is aboard Ray's private plane - her first time ever flying] Nobody will believe me, this wonderful plane, and only you and me.
- Ray Hunter: Well, don't, uh, any of your boyfriends have, uh, private planes?
- Nina Martelli: Ha! They're lucky to have "Lambrettas." You know - motor scooters. You ever been on the back seat of a motor scooter?
- Ray Hunter: No, not lately.
- Nina Martelli: [Indicating his private plane] *This* is better.
- Nina Martelli: Oh, I love the Countessa; but, unfortunately she's ieri - that means yesterday. You're domani - that means tomorrow.
- Ray Hunter: That leaves oggi - that means today, right?
- Nina Martelli: Oh, you know molto Italiano! I could kiss you!
- Ray Hunter: Well, now, aren't you overreacting?
- Nina Martelli: It's the climate, we're near Africa.
- Ray Hunter: It is a little warm here.
- Papa Vittorio Martelli: Now that you know that my little song is in American jazz, perhaps you'll practice the piano.
- Nina Martelli: Oh, I make more money playing a typewriter anyway. And if Mr. Hunter gives me a raise, which I...
- Maria Martelli: Nina! How can you?
- Ray Hunter: Oh, I don't mind. I like aggressiveness. You know, Nina, you're going to go a long way. How old are you?
- Nina Martelli: Nineteen.
- Maria Martelli, Papa Vittorio Martelli: Eighteen!
- Ray Hunter: I'll see that you get that raise.
- Mike Clark: If you aren't busy, I'd like to dictate a letter.
- Nina Martelli: In English?
- Mike Clark: Ah-huh.
- Nina Martelli: In English, I am slow.
- Mike Clark: I dictate slow.
- Nina Martelli: Texas? That is with cowboys, yes?
- Mike Clark: Yeah. You like cowboys?
- Nina Martelli: Oh, I'm crazy for them!
- Mike Clark: Oh, I used to be a cowboy.
- Nina Martelli: Let's dictate, please.
- Mike Clark: Dear Pop, Well, here I am in Rome. It has wonderful old ruins like the Coliseum, Hadrian's Palace. It also has the most beautiful women in the world. Italian girls have a special quality. There's a glow that comes from inside. An effervescence that...
- Nina Martelli: Stop! I cannot write that.
- Mike Clark: Well, why not? It's true.
- Nina Martelli: Yes, it's true. But, I can't spell it.
- Mike Clark: Oh, you don't have to spell it - you got it!
- Nina Martelli: Have I?
- Mike Clark: Oh, yes! Oh my, yes!
- Mike Clark: How much do I owe you?
- Nina Martelli: I never charge cowboys and pilots.
- Mike Clark: You're a doll!
- Nina Martelli: I know exactly what I'm doing!
- Papa Vittorio Martelli: Yes. And exactly what you're doing now is going to bed! Avanti su!
- [spanks Nina on her behind]
- Mike Clark: Why don't we join forces?
- Nina Martelli: If this is still a pitch, you're wasting your time.
- Mike Clark: Maybe. But, I always keep pitching until the game is absolutely and finally lost. A lot can happen in the last half of a ninth inning.
- Ray Hunter: Get going before you make me...
- Nina Martelli: Make you what Mr Hunter?
- Ray Hunter: Make me forget my business.
