Quotes 

• Sally Murfin : Oh Mr. Donay, you're a married man. I don't think I should even be talking to you.

  Peter Donay : Don't you know it isn't nice to bring up the fact that a man is married just when he is making love to you?

  Sally Murfin : Why?

• Sally Murfin : There are two kinds of women, Mr. Donay, nice girls and the other kind. Mr. Donay, I certainly hope you don't think that I'm the other kind.

• Peter Donay : Every night I toss counting the hours until I'll see you again. My throat pounds so I can hardly breath.

  Sally Murfin : Well, that sounds like heartburn. My father's about your age and he has trouble sleeping, too.

  Peter Donay : [startled, flustered look] 

• Brillon : [looking longingly at Sally]  Outside it's spring and life's calling.

  Sally Murfin : What is it about me that makes everybody all the time tell me life is calling?

• Sally Murfin : Gee, Mr. Donay, when you come so close to me like that, it's hard for me to tell you what I got to tell you.

  Peter Donay : Your eyes tell me everything I want to know.

  Peter Donay : Of course you don't. Men spend their whole lives being destroyed by inferior creatures who can't understand plain English.

  Freddie Bilson : Fired? I thought you were gonna quit.

  Sally Murfin : Well, is it my fault that men have to be so silly?

  Peter Donay : I'm not worried.

• Sally Murfin : What is it about me that makes everybody, all the time, tell me life is calling?

• Peter Donay : You came here to plead for your dashing, masterful, hot-tempered, fire-eating, renegade lover!

  Sally Murfin : Are you talking about Freddie?

• Delilah Donay : I'm being to take to this whole idea. After all, at a dance, one does change partners.

  Peter Donay : Life is not a dance!
