• Ronald Brooke : Is this girl a friend of yours?

  Jenny Swanson : I wish she was.

  Ronald Brooke : Good heavens, why?

  Jenny Swanson : Maybe she could tell me how to do it.

  Ronald Brooke : Do what?

  Jenny Swanson : Go to Paris!

• Ronald Brooke : What happened on that train?

  Jenny Swanson : Well, we got very friendly and I slept in his Drawing Room.

  Ronald Brooke : What?

  Jenny Swanson : Yeh, Tom had to double up to get in my berth but he said he didn't mind.

• Ronald Brooke : Jenny, have you lost your flutter?

  Jenny Swanson : Oh, no. I'm fluttering something awful right now.

• Ronald Brooke : And, Jenny, keep away from young men with large cars and small characters. And don't accept things from them.

  Jenny Swanson : Nothing?

  Ronald Brooke : Well... . flowers, fruit, and candy.

  Jenny Swanson : And hospitality?

  Ronald Brooke : Only of the right sort, Jenny.

• Ronald Brooke : Jenny, why are you running?

  Jenny Swanson : [fleeing Paul Kingston]  I always run before breakfast. It stimulates your heart, c'mon.

  [pulling him along] 

• Ronald Brooke : Oh Jenny, don't you realize how empty a loveless marriage can be?

  Jenny Swanson : Yes, I do. That's why I told Tom I couldn't Marry him.

• Ronald Brooke : Jenny, why did you have to pick on this family to blackmail?

  Jenny Swanson : Oh, but I didn't. It was an accident.

• Olaf Brand : I've been having flutters all my life. Why else would I have three doctors?

  Jenny Swanson : You don't need a doctor for a flutter. That's just your conscience telling you what to do, and you don't pay any attention to it.

• Ronald Brooke : That was a flutter, Jenny. That was your conscience talking.

  Jenny Swanson : Oh, does that mean I'll never be able to do anything wrong?

  Ronald Brooke : Not with your solar plexus. No Jenny, I'm afraid you're doomed to be a good girl.

• Ronald Brooke : Now look here, that's no answer. You started to say something.

  Jenny Swanson : Aesop says, "Wise men say nothing in dangerous times."

• Ronald Brooke : I suppose you didn't make yourself as pretty as possible last night. Why, you... you caught him like a rat in a trap.

  Jenny Swanson : Did I really look pretty?

  Ronald Brooke : You were wonderful. You looked radiant. You... you were positively starry-eyed. I tell you, I won't have it.

• Jenny Swanson : I've got to leave town tonight. If I don't, they'll scramble eggs on the sidewalk. Mr. Dayton said so.
