  • Sgt. Nowland: Goodbye you wonderful package of animal instinct.
  • [they kiss passionately]
  • Studio Guide: Every time I look at the Hollywoodland sign, I'll remember...
  • Sgt. Nowland: I'll meet you there after the war... and we'll unscrew all the bulbs!
  • Ida Lupino: Good evening, Sergeant. First night at the Canteen?
  • Sgt. Nowland: Yes, ma'am.
  • Ida Lupino: Well, can I show you the ropes?
  • Sgt. Nowland: Miss Lupino, you may show me anything your lovely heart desires.
  • Studio Guide: I give so much of myself to art, there would be so little left for you.
  • Sgt. Nowland: A *crumb* - would be a banquet.
  • Studio Guide: I'll be all tied up with Humphrey Bogart - all day. We're testing.
  • Sgt. Nowland: You passed my test the moment I laid my orbs on you.
  • Studio Guide: Would you settle for a dance?
  • Sgt. Nowland: Would a starving man settle for beef steak?
  • Sgt. Nowland: Anybody ever tell you you look like Joan Crawford?
  • Joan Crawford: Why yes, my husband has.
  • Sgt. Nowland: Mmm, you dance good. Light as a feather.
  • Joan Crawford: Thank you.
  • Sgt. Nowland: You know you're a dead ringer for Joan Crawford.
  • Joan Crawford: Am I really?
  • [moves in closer, dancing cheek to cheek]
  • Joan Crawford: Don't look now, but, I *am* Joan Crawford.
  • Sgt. Nowland: My life to this moment has been a total loss because I ain't seen your beautiful puss in pictures.
  • Sgt. Nowland: Slim, when we was mildewing in the jungle, I kinda resented these Canteens and the guys that were lucky enough to here instead of there. I don't resent it no more. And I used to figure that Hollywood was a place with all false fronts. Nothin' false about them we seen tonight. Gorgeous.
  • Sgt. Nowland: I don't want to get sloppy about this; but, it kinda got me. All them famous people being friendly and democratic. Democratic. Democracy - that's what it means, Slim. Everybody equal like tonight. All them big shots - listening to little shots like me. And bein' friendly.
  • Sgt. Nowland: I don't send my girlfriends no flowers. I always say a good smack on the kisser pays off more.
  • Sgt. Nowland: How do you on your test with Humphery Bogart, beautiful?
  • Studio Guide: Oh, they're crazy about me. Mr. Bogart said he never got so much *give* from anybody?
  • Sgt. Nowland: What's "give"?
  • Studio Guide: Well, it's how you look at someone when somebody says something to somebody - about something.
  • Sgt. Nowland: I know what you mean. You got more give than I ever *got*.
  • Sgt. Nowland: I always say a woman's place is in the hotel room.
  • Studio Guide: What would you like to see next?
  • Sgt. Nowland: Beautiful women.
  • Studio Guide: Follow me.
