Mrs. Drury
- Mrs. Drury: [on hearing her new son-in-law's name] Casanova!
- Mr. Drury: Is this an Italian fellow?
- Mrs. Drury: A historical character, Father.
- [pause]
- Mrs. Drury: Rather fast.
- Mrs. Drury: At moments like this, when the way is not clear, let us not forget that there is one place where we can always find the answer - in the stars.
- Isabel Drury: Oh, mother, you're not gonna drag that stuff in again? Ohhh, Dad.
- Mr. Drury: Now, now, now, dear - Mother knows best.
- Mrs. Drury: And the stars know better still.
- Casanova Brown: Do you mean that you would base your approval or disapproval of your daughter's marriage on that nonsense?
- Mrs. Drury: Nonsense, Mr. Brown?
- Mr. Drury: Couldn't probably have picked a worse word.
- Mrs. Drury: On September 3rd, Sagittarius was in the fifth solar house of Neptune.
- Casanova Brown: Oh, really?
- Mrs. Drury: I don't suppose that had ever occurred to you.
- Casanova Brown: No, I can't say that it has.
- Mrs. Drury: If there's anything I object to it's a young man who's allowed himself to fall victim to the cigarettes.
- Casanova Brown: Oh, absolutely. So do I.
- Mrs. Drury: Or a liar. To me, a liar is even lower than a cigarette fiend.
- Casanova Brown: There's no question about that at all.
