Quotes 

• Gwen Saunders : [talking about Bob]  Is anything the matter with him? Is he... peculiar? I mean he isn't married, is he?

  Samuel : [doesn't look up from his fishing pole]  No ma'am, he ain't that peculiar.

  Gwen Saunders : Thank you, Sam! Hope you catch a whale!

• Gwen Saunders : You hardly know us and yet you've taken a great delight in hurting everybody's feelings. Well, why don't you make a good job of it. Go on! Go on! Don't leave me out! I'm here. What would you like to do to me?

  Steve Bennett : I would like to kiss you 'til your ears fly off.

• Gwen Saunders : [waving 10 thousand dollar bills]  I'm so upset, I don't know what I'm doing. I've had these for 4 days. Pudgy doesn't know I've got them. Here you keep them.

  [hands cash to Steve] 

  Gwen Saunders : I've had them in two bags, in my safe deposit box, under my pillow, and in my stocking.

  [points at her leg] 

  Steve Bennett : [staring at leg]  Aren't you afraid of prowlers?

• Steve Bennett : [talking to his client on the phone]  Yes, sir. I'll call you the minute I've got something good.

  Gwen Saunders : [knocks and walks in to office]  Hello!

  Steve Bennett : I've got something. Goodbye.

  [hangs up phone] 

• Gwen Saunders : Mr. Bennett? Is he here already? What's he like?

  Miss Hilda Turner - Secretary : [slightly laughing]  Well, he's kind of hard to describe...

  Gwen Saunders : Oh, I know the type.

• Gwen Saunders : There isn't anyone in the world I could ask except Van and he wouldn't do it.

  Steve Bennett : Oh, he wouldn't, eh? Well that's just like him. Who is he?

• Gwen Saunders : [concerned about her 10 thousand dollar bills]  You mustn't mix it with your money.

  Steve Bennett : [Shakes the coins in his pocket]  No, I won't mix it with my money.

• Van : Steven, what you said to mother, it was nothing. Nothing at all. Forget it.

  Gwen Saunders : But, Van, your own mother! An old paper bag!

  Mr. Van Dusen : I think it's outrageous. Bennett... I can't find words!

  Steve Bennett : That, sir, is the trouble with your editorials.

• Mrs. Ralston : Well, I'll say one thing for Mr. Bennett. He's different.

  Gwen Saunders : So was Jack the Ripper!

• Samuel : Look what came up, Miss Saunders.

  Gwen Saunders : Oh, go soak your head,

• Gwen Saunders : Tea time. Tea Everybody. It's almost four o'clock. Time for tea. Tea for T.T.?

  [utter chaos ensues] 

  T.T. Ralston : We don't want any tea.

  Dick Donnelly : Take that stuff away from him

  Gwen Saunders : I'll serve you myself, Mr. Bishop.

  [she pours the tea on his pants leg] 

• Gwen Saunders : [on the phone with T.T.'s office]  Well, then give Mr. Bennett this message. It's terribly, terribly important. Tell him that something's come up and that the... the thing that I gave him to do something with, he's not to do that with them at all, and that, uh, he's to hold the thing, and I have to have 'em back right away. Now, that's clear, isn't it?

• Gwen Saunders : [on the phone]  The Miami Palms? Well, wait'll I get a pencil and paper. Well, what do I need a pencil and paper for? I can remember that - Miami Palms Hotel. Thank you, Hilda.
