Quotes
-
Jackie : All right, all right, simmer down. It's my turn to holler.
[singing]
Jackie : Love and learn, Love and learn, It's a breeze, Then a burn, You retreat, Then return, You may have climbed the tree of knowledge, But when you love you really learn, Love and learn, Learn a lot, It's the be-and-end all, Then its not, It's a dream, It's a plot, It's something out of seventh heaven, Or something misbegot, Each morning when I count my blessings, They tally up to none, I've arrived at this
Frank Elgin : The state of bliss is somewhat overdone
Jackie : Well, go Daddy, go.
Frank Elgin : Live and learn, weep and sing, Till the final day of reckoning
Jackie : What about this guy?
Frank Elgin : But when arms start to cling, With the thrills kisses bring, What you have learned is, Is you haven't learned a thing
Jackie : Take me home, Dad...

Jackie : Hey, aren't you Frank Elgin?
Frank Elgin : I used to be. Not a word or I'll tell them you're Harpo Marx.
