[first lines]
Lionel : Funny things, peanuts.
Jean : What?
Lionel : I said peanuts are funny things. I mean, peanuts and things on sticks aren't usually in one's main stream of consciousness, are they?
Jean : No, I have to admit that.

Jean : [after Lionel gave an uncharacteristically upbeat toast at Rocky and Madge's post-wedding reception] Now call me suspicious, Lionel, but you can't have had a change of heart that quickly.
Lionel : I had a phone call from father's doctor today. The old fool will be lucky if he lasts another year.
Jean : [Touches him] Oh I'm sorry. Did you tell him?
Lionel : Hardly an opportune moment.
Jean : Will you tell him?
Lionel : No. What do they say? "One crowded hour of glorious life is worth an age without a name". That's the way they see it anyway. Let them have their crowded hour. Every minute of it.
