Stella Bentley
- John Bentley: Oh, I see. All my fault. The father's always to blame. Give the children money, you spoil them. Give them no money, you handicap them. Expect much from them, you set too high a standard. Expect nothing and you give them an inferiority complex. There is no answer!
- Stella Bentley: Of course there is, dear. As long as they're happy.
- John Bentley: Nonsense. Any monkey with a bomb tied to its tail could be happy--until it goes off.
- Stella Bentley: The last 18 years, John, I've put up with your drab, dreary, dull, dismal, dated routine. In the short time since Mr. Denver's been in the house, I've had more excitement and glamour than in all those 18 years. It's made me feel as if I were back on stage again. And you dare to call him a degenerate product! I'm sorry to have to say this, John, but I would willing leave you tomorrow for either Abbot--or Costello.
- John Bentley: Why is she dressed like a morbid fisherman?
- Stella Bentley: Because Peter, her husband, is an existentialist, dear.
- Stella Bentley: What's the matter with you, dear?
- Gwen Bentley: I ruined him?.
- Stella Bentley: Who?
- Gwen Bentley: Bobby.
- Stella Bentley: Last night, I thought it was the other way around.
- John Bentley: Ah, good evening, Stella.
- Stella Bentley: Who is this brazen hussy?
- John Bentley: She's not brazen, dear. She's blonde. You must get yourself some glasses.
- John Bentley: Stella, I'm grateful to you.
- Stella Bentley: Grateful?
- John Bentley: Oh, yes. You were perfectly right. Up to now, I've lead a dull, drab, monotonous life. But, now I've had a little fling. And once more, I'm going on having little flings. I find I like little flings.
- Stella Bentley: When I looked in the mirror this morning, I thought I looked tired and ugly. I said, I thought I looked tired and ugly.
- John Bentley: I'm not arguing dear.
- Stella Bentley: Has he fallen off his horse?
- John Bentley: On the contrary - he can't get on it. He has a boil.
- Stella Bentley: A boil? Where?
- John Bentley: Dallas, Texas.
