- Lelia: I thought being with you would be so important - would mean so much. That afterwards two people would be as close as it's possible to get. But, instead, we're just two strangers.
- Tony: Really, if I'd known this was the first time for you, I wouldn't have touched you.
- Lelia: I didn't know it could be so awful.
- Tony: Who do you belong to, Lelia?
- Lelia: I belong to me.
- Lelia: I don't want to sit around here and be insulted by these creeps. Let's go.
- David: Why don't you do something? Learn something. There are a thousands of things to do in New York City.
- Ben: Like what?
- David: Why don't you do something different. You want to meet new people? You want to come to a literary party I'm having tonight?
- Lelia: Don't invite them, Dave. They won't even wear a tie!
- Lelia: David's writing a new novel all about you, Ben.
- Ben: Better not be any of that Beat Generation jazz like the last one.
- Davey: Maybe I could drop by one afternoon. We could take in a movie or something.
- Lelia: I don't like the movies.
- Davey: Do you always go around embarrassing people in front of strangers? I mean, laughing at them in front of your family. Keep them waiting for hours just to show them how masculine you are.
- Lelia: Darling, I'm not masculine.
- Davey: Well, it would seem that way to me.
- David: Lelia, I'm not trying to hurt your feelings. But, if you're going to write a story, you have to do it professionally.
- Lelia: David, I don't want to be a writer. I didn't want to do this. You convinced me to do it. And now all you can do is criticize.
- David: I just want you to be honest.
- Lelia: How do you want me to behave?
- Davey: Look, just dance - and be as lovely as you look.
- Lelia: Look, David, I am what I am. And nobody tells me what to do.
