- [Applauding after a violinist's performance]
- May Welland: Lovely, wasn't it, Granny?
- Granny Manson Mingott: Yes, I couldn't hear much of it, but I like to see him make faces. I'm gonna sit closer the next time... so that I can see more of him.
- Granny Manson Mingott: I'm not prepared to die. I've been neglecting my bible lately.
- Julius Beaufort: Oh, come now. You know you want to go where I'm going.
- Mrs. Welland: Couldn't you drop her a little hint?
- Granny Manson Mingott: Hint? I told her in the plainest terms!
- Mrs. Welland: What his reputation was?
- Granny Manson Mingott: I told her he didn't have much reputation. I told her no nice woman would be seen walking up Fifth Avenue in broad daylight with Julius Beaufort. And what do you think she said?
- [laughs]
- Granny Manson Mingott: She said, darling, would you rather I walk with him at night?
- Newland Archer: What's this I hear about you having an affair of the heart? I thought I was the only one who could make it flutter?
- Granny Manson Mingott: Well, when a girl of my age will eat chicken salad at night, what can you expect?
- Granny Manson Mingott: Run along and fetch her, Newland, like a good grandson. May and I have a lot to say to each other. She's going to tell me all the secrets of the honeymoon.
- Granny Manson Mingott: I don't know what your old Granny is going to do without you, child? Not that I blame you. Life will be a good deal gayer for you over there. If I were you're age and had the whole world to chose from, I'd do the same.
- Granny Manson Mingott: Hello, Beaufort. Where's Regina?
- Julius Beaufort: Oh, she's about. Of course, it's hard for a man to keep track of his wife these days.
- Granny Manson Mingott: Are you sure you try?
