- John Buchanan, Jr: What is it that's troubling you, Nellie?
- Nellie Ewell: I don't know. I get these funny feelings.
- John Buchanan, Jr: Where and when?
- Nellie Ewell: Here. When I'm with a boy sometimes.
- John Buchanan, Jr: Oh?
- Nellie Ewell: Not really boys. Men. Especially if they're handsome.
- John Buchanan, Jr: And?
- Nellie Ewell: You know how dictionaries are. You look up one word and it gives you another and you look up that word and it gives you the word you looked up first place.
- John Buchanan, Jr: Sweet 16.
- Nellie Ewell: I'm 17, Dr. Johnny. Mother keeps me very well sheltered. Why - I really shouldn't tell you.
- John Buchanan, Jr: Oh, it's all right. I'm past 16, too.
- Nellie Ewell: Well, she wouldn't answer certain questions I'd asked, So I had to go to your father.
- John Buchanan, Jr: What kind of questions were they?
- Nellie Ewell: About the facts.
- John Buchanan, Jr: What facts?
- Nellie Ewell: The facts of life, naturally.
- Nellie Ewell: Want a peppermint drop? They make your mouth sweet.

- Nellie Ewell: I always take one when I hope to be kissed.
- John Buchanan, Jr: I might take you up on that.
- Nellie Ewell: Scared?
