- John Coudair: All right, I'm trying not to be excited. What would you do if your youth should walk in through that door?
- Cornelia Jackson: I'd put braces on its teeth.
- Cornelia Jackson: This mania you have for peering at these creatures in their native haunts is the - well, I should know after all these years, I can't change you. Is this one worth going to Brooklyn to see?

- Noel Wheaton: Please don't be humorous.
- Cornelia Jackson: You're humorous! Both of you. You're trying to do something you'll never do. Lure a girl away from a guy she loves - with things. Well, it won't work - and I'm just dame enough to be glad of it. What do you think of that?
