Sarah Watkins
- Sarah Watkins: I don't want to sound like a voice for morality, it makes him angry and you angry. But there are some things...
- Cecil Fox: What things?
- Sarah Watkins: Not gold, perhaps, but still precious. Not negotiable, not even legal tender. Just tender.
- Cecil Fox: Love, for example?
- Sarah Watkins: You can't even say it, you poor man, you make it sound like hate.
- Sarah Watkins: [when asked about her lovelife] Truthfully, there isn't a man whose face I can remember.
- Mrs. Sheridan: Is he still with us Sarah?
- Sarah Watkins: He seems to have a very good pulse, Mrs. Sheridan; but, its terribly fast.
- Mrs. Sheridan: Runnin' lickety-split to Judgment Day, that's why.
- Sarah Watkins: Oh, I don't know what I wish. If only he were more stupid or less stupid. If he could only understand that everybody in the world can't want everything and have everything; because, well then, everything would be worthless.
- Sarah Watkins: I would very much like to sit down. Will you promise not to molest me?
- Cecil Fox: Molest? Makes me sound like something in a public park.
- William McFly: I've never known a woman so much like an open city.
- Sarah Watkins: I don't trust you.
- William McFly: Then don't tell me you don't. Never say what you feel - especially to men about men.
- Sarah Watkins: In the last seven months, with Mrs. Sheridan, I've traveled to 31 cities, all beautiful, 31 hotel rooms, 31 hotel restaurants, and I have this to tell them apart. A charm for every city we visited from Paris to Marrakesh.
- William McFly: [inspects the bracelet] What does the little key open? The Bastille or a miniature chastity belt?
- Sarah Watkins: You goaded me into it.
- Cecil Fox: Of course I did - and you bounced right back. You are a bouncy little thing. I sensed it the moment I spotted you. How would you like to be my nurse?
- Sarah Watkins: Not very much, thank you.
- Cecil Fox: What if there was one remaining sapphire surrounded by those pear-shaped diamonds and I wanted you to have it. Would you accept it?
- Sarah Watkins: Certainly not.
- Cecil Fox: Do you know how much of what you call 'living' it would pay for? That bed sitting room would be your's in perpetuity. Hundreds of burglar-proof girdles, thousands of watercress sandwiches.
- Sarah Watkins: I loath watercress and I don't wear a girdle.
- Cecil Fox: Have you your notebook ready, student? Are topic is larceny.
- Sarah Watkins: I seem to have accidentally blundered into the wrong classroom.
- Sarah Watkins: You're being very persuasive, but I know damn well what you're really after.
- Cecil Fox: You have the advantage of me there. I don't know *just* what you're after, but, I'm quite sure you are - or will be - after something.
