- Fanny Brice: Where I come from, when two people... well, sort of love each other... oh, never mind.
- Nick Arnstein: Well? What do they do when they "sort of love each other"?
- Fanny Brice: Well, one of them says, "Why don't we get married?"
- Nick Arnstein: Really?
- Fanny Brice: Yeah, and sometimes it's even the man.
- Fanny Brice: You could get lonesome being that free.
- Nick Arnstein: You could get lonesome being that busy.
- Fanny Brice: Now who'd think to look at us that we got the same problem!
- Nick Arnstein: I'd be happy to wait while you change.
- Fanny: I'd have to change too much, nobody could wait that long.
- Nick Arnstein: [Nicky Arnstein has just ordered "filet de boeuf, sauce bordelaise" in French]
- Fanny Brice: I would have ordered roast beef and potatoes.
- Nick Arnstein: I did.
- Fanny Brice: If I can't tell when you're ordering roast beef and potatoes, how will I know when you're making advances?
- Nick Arnstein: You'll know. I'll be much more direct.
- Nick Arnstein: Fanny, I... I've had months to think about us.
- Fanny Brice: You want to hear something funny? I've had the same months, and I never thought about us. I mean... I simmered, I stewed, I cried my eyes out... but I never really thought, not until today. Then I saw that you were right. You did a lot for me, Nick. That's what I'm going to remember.
- Nick Arnstein: What did I ever gave you darling? What did I ever give you that you couldn't have gotten yourself?
- Fanny Brice: [referring to the blue marble egg on her makeup table] A blue marble egg. No one would have given me that but you. And you... you made me feel sort of beautiful for a very long time.
- Nick Arnstein: [sincere] You *are* beautiful.
