Quotes 

• Al : [singing]  Oh, Mr. Gallagher, Mr. Gallagher, Today I paid a visit to a gallery

  'Pop' Gallagher : A gallery?

  Al : Of all the statues that they show, I think Venus de Milo, Is the greatest in all Greek mythology

  'Pop' Gallagher : Oh, Mr. Shean, Oh, Mr. Shean, For de Milos' Venus, I'm not very keen

  Al : Why not?

  'Pop' Gallagher : For the thing that spoils her charms Are the pair of broken arms

  Al : I didn't see them, Mr. Gallagher

  'Pop' Gallagher : Where were you looking, Mr. Shean?

• 'Pop' Gallagher : When he gets here, that's our cue to be hard to get.

  Susan Gallagher : Right now, I feel awful easy to get.

• 'Pop' Gallagher : [singing]  I call my dog telephone, He's busy at both ends...

• 'Pop' Gallagher : Don't worry, baby. You'll be all right. Our act's like a snake. You cut it in half and both ends wiggle.

• Susan Gallagher : [singing]  My schemes, Why all of my schemes, Are just like a-a-all my dreams, Ending, Ending in the sky, Up there in the sky, And let me tell you, Some fellows look and find the sunshine...

  John Slayton : [interupting]  Hold it! Don't you know they quit beating a song to death 10 years ago?

  'Pop' Gallagher : Oh, another intellectual.

  John Slayton : Won't do, honey, won't do. You don't slug an audience from the front nowadays. You kind of sneak up on it from behind.

• 'Pop' Gallagher : [singing]  She has millionaires untold, Who have lavished her with gold

  Al : To keep her friendship, Mr. Gallagher?

  'Pop' Gallagher : To keep her mouth shut, Mr. Shean
