Alabam Lee
- Alabam Lee: I don't know anything about charity. I never got any and never handed out any.
- Judge Daly: Your'e not accused of *charity*, young lady. You're accused of violation of the morals code. And from what I know of your reputation, it's high time something was done about it.
- Alabam Lee: Cigarette, Patsy?
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: No, thanks. I don't smoke. But, I do drink.
- Kendall: Can't you ever get serious? Are you gonna be a goose all your life?
- Alabam Lee: Yeah and I'm the kind of goose that's apt to lay gold eggs on a minutes notice.
- Kendall: Don't flatter yourself. They're only gold plated since they took that fan away from you.
- Alabam Lee: Is that so? Remember that it's me they come to see at the Montmartre, not the fan.
- Johnny Mills: You're so utterly different than I expected, that I...
- Alabam Lee: Well, what did you expect?
- Johnny Mills: Well, I don't know. A sort of a - kind of a...
- Alabam Lee: That's it. A sort of a, kind of a. In fact, you might call me a kind of a, sort of a.
- Alabam Lee: Look me over. Well?
- Johnny Mills: Having looked you over, I find the results - immanently satisfactory. So much so, in fact, I've decided to see more of you.
- Alabam Lee: You'll have to come down to the Montmartre for that.
- Johnny Mills: I'll be there. Tonight.
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: What's that you're reading?
- Alabam Lee: "Famous Women of History" - all about Josephine, Du Barry, and Pompadour.
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: You would pick out a book like that.
- Alabam Lee: Swell book! Those three babies certainly knew their stallions. Learn about women from them.
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: They were low women.
- Alabam Lee: Well, maybe they started low, but they aimed high.
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: Did you ever hear of Jack Dempsey?
- Alabam Lee: Yeah, that's the guy that married Hannah Williams, isn't it?
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: He was an unknown youngster until Jack Kearns got ahold of him. Kearns made a champ out of that kid - just as I'm going to make a champ out of you.
- Alabam Lee: Champ or chump? I'm no leather pusher.
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: It doesn't matter what you are. I'm only interested in what you're going to be. A winner!
- Alabam Lee: I refuse to answer on the ground that it would tend to...
- Johnny Mills: Degrade and intimidate you?
- Alabam Lee: No. Degrade and intimidate you.
- Johnny Mills: Someday I'm going to build a dance floor right in the middle of the ocean. Then I'll hire Paul Whiteman and his orchestra to come and play for us in the moonlight. Just we two. And we'll dance and dance - until he runs out of music.
- Alabam Lee: I have a rough idea you like dancing with me.
- Alabam Lee: Mama's going hunting.
- Patricia 'Patsy' Patterson: For what?
- Alabam Lee: Bank roll. No penny ante either. No more fishing for shrimp. A whale! That's what I'm after. Somebody with a ton of money.
- Kendall: Have you still got that old fan of your's?
- Alabam Lee: Yes. It's in mothballs, but, it's just as good as ever.
- Kendall: Well, dig it up. I'll put you on at the club tonight.
- Alabam Lee: What are you worrying about now? Everybody's satisfied. You. His mother. Judge Daly. Everything's all right. "God's in his heaven and all's right with the world." Johnny read that to me one night out of a book. Somebody by the name of Browning wrote it. A poem.
