Edith Merriam
- Edith Merriam: Why, honey, you could no more quit than you could stop breathing. It's your life!
- James Francis 'Bugs': No? Hey, you think I like this sweat and worry, 24 hours a day? Scheme, connive, play both ends against the middle, live on the edge of a volcano that's liable to blow up any minute. I suppose you think it's fun to be spending your life waiting for some mug to spray you with a machine gun. Why, I can't go anywheres without a bodyguard. I'm always tense, coiled up like a spring, ready to duck the moment anybody flashes a rod. Every time that I step in my car, get near a window, walk around the block, every time somebody opens the door, I'm hunching shoulders, waiting for that thunder! That's how I've lived for the last 10 years - and believe me, sister, I got a bellyful.
- Edith Merriam: So the skids under me, huh?
- James Francis 'Bugs': Well, it's tough.
- Edith Merriam: Oh, us dames always get it sooner or later. It's like death and the taxes.
- James Francis 'Bugs': I hate to do this kid. You've been a great pal.
- Edith Merriam: Never mind the song and dance. Oh, I ain't sore, Bugs. You say quit - so, it's quit.
- Edith Merriam: What's eatin' the Little Giant tonight?
- Albert J. 'Al' Daniels: He's goin' outta business. How do you like that?
