Quotes4

  • Freddy Lee: How much will you charge me for publishing my song?
  • Miss Murphy: [Stunned] Who let you off the farm?
  • Freddy Lee: My Uncle Leland.
  • William Spencer: I think it's great, really great.
  • Chester Dooley: You'll publish it then?
  • William Spencer: Sure. I'll have the contracts drawn, same deal as before.
  • Chester Dooley: [Shakes his head] Uh-uh.
  • Freddy Lee: Oh, oh.
  • William Spencer: What do you mean, Chester?
  • Chester Dooley: Well, no offense, Mr. Spencer, but I want a $100 advance, two cents a copy from the first, and my picture on the sheet music.
  • William Spencer: Why, that's a holdup. You gotta lot of nerve.
  • Chester Dooley: I had two martinis for lunch.
  • William Spencer: How can you come in here and pull a trick like this? You owe everything to me. I picked you out of the gutter and made your name a byword. I plucked you out of obscurity and placed your music in every home in our nation. And this is the thanks I get. Aren't you ashamed?
  • Chester Dooley: Yes, sir. I'm ashamed.
  • William Spencer: Well, that's better...
  • Chester Dooley: And I want a $100 advance, two cents a copy from the first, and my picture on the sheet music.
  • [Looks at himself in the mirror]
  • Chester Dooley: On second thought, you can leave my picture off.
  • Miss Murphy: You gotta give it a fighting chance.
  • Freddy Lee: Gosh, you mean you're not going to see me again?
  • Terry Martin: You're a sweet boy and I like you very much. But there are two things wrong with you. Number one is you're not rich. Number two is I'm not rich.
  • Freddy Lee: Gosh, I sure am glad you found me again, Hortense. Whoops, sorry.
  • Terry Martin: I'm going to make you remember Terry Martin if I have to engrave it on every bone in your head.
  • Freddy Lee: Yeah. It sure is swell seeing you again. Remember the happy times we had back in Texas? Remember the time you proposed to me and I accepted?
  • Terry Martin: I was only 12 at the time and I had two Cokes.
