Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Ivy : Let me have a look in the daylight. You can't tell by artificial light.

  Alvin : She'll go to any lengths, that woman, to attract my attention.

  Nora Batty : The number of times I sweep that yard, and still there are things I can never get rid of.

  Ivy : Ignore it. It might go away.

  Nora Batty : It keeps coming back!

  Alvin : I've seen her in some very funny hats, but that's pushing it even for her.

  Ivy : It's part of her costume, dimwit. She's in the float parade. She's playing the general's wife.

  Alvin : Oh, lucky him. Who's playing the general?

  Nora Batty : Nobody. He's a dummy.

  Alvin : Well, he'd have to be to be married to you.

  Ivy : It's a lifelike dummy of the hero of the battle of Mazurka. They use it every year. It's a piece of history. It's dressed in one of the general's original uniforms.

  Alvin : You're getting all dressed up to sit on a float next to a dummy!

  Nora Batty : I've had plenty of practice being next to dummies since you moved here.
