Quotes 

• Alexander Stream : Oscar, you ought to settle down and have a family.

  Oscar : Well, a family's a good thing for a man, Mr. Stream, and especially a married man. But, my model with women is just love 'em and leave 'em.

• Alexander Stream : Oscar, what do you do on your nights off? I mean, when you haven't had anything definite to do?

  Oscar : Oh, I spend a couple of hours at the public library.

  Alexander Stream : Studying?

  Oscar : Well, no, not exactly. I usually hang around until I get acquainted.

  Alexander Stream : Acquainted?

  Oscar : Well, you see, sir, its a good place to pick up girls with ideas. You know, the kind that read romances and they're full of notions about love and and they're rarin' to go. Now, you take the girls that hang around dance halls, well, they're different. They're too smart and you just can't get to first base with them.

  Alexander Stream : I see. What else do you do?

  Oscar : Oh, take in a picture show or maybe the fights at the Garden or get on top of one of the buses and peep in the windows.

• Oscar : You pay me 40 a week. Well, I could use more.

  Alexander Stream : Yeah?

  Oscar : Well, heck, I get along swell and if you did give me any more, why, some big blonde would probably take it away from me.

• Tommy Stream : Do you think you're going to like it over in London, Oscar?

  Oscar : Well, I'll like it better when I learn to speak their language.
