Jonathan Kingsley : What are you implying by "she led him on"?
Dr. Herbert Fleischer : Well, my son is an innocent. Which is more than I can say for your daughter.
Jonathan Kingsley : Go on implying, but keep your guard up.
Dr. Herbert Fleischer : Well, doctor-to-doctor, you better know something, Doctor.
Jonathan Kingsley : Like what?
Dr. Herbert Fleischer : Well, I concluded her medical yesterday. And to put it unmedically, your daughter no longer qualifies as a spinster.
Jonathan Kingsley : Do you mean precisely what I think you mean?
Dr. Herbert Fleischer : Precisely.

Bartholmew Smuts : [Looking at a painting hanging over Dr. Kingley's fireplace] Hey, man. That is a pretty groovy reproduction!
Jonathan Kingsley : That is no reproduction. That is an original Matisse.
Bartholmew Smuts : An original copy, you mean. Matisse never used a brush stroke like that in his life. Where did you buy this phony?
Jonathan Kingsley : From a patient of mine who happens to be an art dealer.
Bartholmew Smuts : That patient's cured, man. *You* belong on the couch.

Linda Kingsley : [her parents are trying to get her to clean up her very messy room] How can you make such a big deal out of one little messy room when this whole world is flying apart? Crime on the streets! Strontium-90 in our milk! Push-button warfare! Why, do you realize that at any moment, we might be *blasted* off the face of this earth?
Jonathan Kingsley : All right. So we'll be blasted. But when we are, you are going with a clean room!
