- [as the cast continues a dream Follies number, Ben forgets his lyrics and tries to get out]
- Ben: Look at me! I'm nobody! Can't you see that I'm a fraud? You couldn't love me! no one could! All I'd do is hurt you, tell you lies! Her zipper stuck, and you kept saying "I love you! I love you!" I only wanted her 'till I had her! After that, it didn't matter! I got a job, and it was easy! But they'll never know! I'm too smart for them! You hear me? They'll never catch me! I'm too smart! I'm too... smart... NO!
- Ben: Success is swell, and success is sweet, but every height has a drop. The less achievement, the less defeat; What's the point of shovin' your way to the top? Livin' laughin' lovin' you're never a flop!
- Ben: The roads you never take go through rocky ground, don't they? The choices that you make aren't all that grim. The worlds you never see still will be around, won't they? The Ben I'll never be, Who remembers him?
- Buddy: Waiting around for the girls upstairs, after the curtain came down; money in my pocket to spend; "Honey, could you maybe get a friend for my friend?"
- Ben: Hearing the sounds of the girls above, dressing to go on the town...
- Buddy: Clicking heels on steel and cement...
- Ben: Picking up the giggles floating down through the vent...
- Buddy, Ben: God damnedest hours that I ever spent were waiting for the girls upstairs!
- Sally, Ben: Too many mornings wasted in pretending I reach for you. How many mornings are there still to come! How much time can we hope that there will be? Not much time, but it's time enough for me. If there's time to look up and be/see Sally standing at the door, Sally moving to the bed, Sally resting in your/my arms, with your head against my head.
