- Edwin: I don't want to go to Brooklyn. You can't make me. I don't *want* to go to Brooklyn.
- Bus Driver: None of us want to, bud, but we all gotta go sooner or later.
- [last lines]
- Edwin Dingle: In fact, I don't think I'm ever going to see Buster again.
- [Edwin hears the spooky Buster music and gasps]
- Edwin Dingle: [angrily] Buster!
- Buzzy's Ghost: [popping out of a box] I'm a little devil, ain't I?
- Ellen Shanley: Do you think you'll be coming back tomorrow?
- Edwin Dingle: Oh, by all means. I enjoy it here very much, uh, I love the smell of leather bindings.
- Edwin Dingle: Did you say you sing and dance in a night club?
- Sailor's Girl Friend: No, I work in a bakery. But, a lot of people take me for Lana Turner.
- Edwin Dingle: Ellen.
- Ellen Shanley: You've got a nerve, hanging around here. You just got me fired!
- Edwin Dingle: I'm sorry, but, I must resort to force.
- Ellen Shanley: Oh, now you're a cave man!
- Edwin Dingle: Well, the Neanderthal Man had his merits.
- Ellen Shanley: [Talking on the phone] But, I just have to talk to the District Attorney about a young man he arrested. He's not really out of his mind. I upset him because he's not used to girls.
- Edwin: Do you remember you once told me you wouldn't be found dead in Brooklyn?
- Buzzy's Ghost: Yeah, I remember. That was the only way they could get me here.
- Buster "Buzzy" Bellew: Take it easy, lad. A fellow has to pay his cab fare. What do I owe you, Max?
- Max - Taxi Driver: 60 cents, Buzzy.
- Buster "Buzzy" Bellew: I'll toss you for it, double or nothing. Give me a coin. Come on, Max. Come on. That a boy. What do you cry?
- Max - Taxi Driver: Tails!
- Buster "Buzzy" Bellew: To bad, Max, you lose. Ha-ha-ha!
- [Starts to walk away]
- Max - Taxi Driver: Hey Buzzy, my quarter! My quarter!
- Buster "Buzzy" Bellew: This guy's money mad. Here you go, Max.
- [Buzzy tosses money to Max]
- Max - Taxi Driver: [Surprised] Five bucks! What a sweetheart.
- Ellen Shanley: You know, Mr. Dingle, you have the most extraordinary mind I've ever heard of.
- Edwin Dingle: Oh, I wouldn't say that.
- Ellen Shanley: You're very modest, aren't you?
- Edwin Dingle: Yes, I guess, I am.
- Ellen Shanley: That's odd. If I had a mind like yours; in fact, if I had any mind at all; I'd be a brazen hussy! Ha-ha-ha.
- Edwin Dingle: Oh! Ha-ha-ha
- Ellen Shanley: There! I bet that's the first time you've laughed since you've read Professor Zimmel's inaccuracies of the Phoenician wars. Ha-ha-ha
- Edwin Dingle: Ha-ha-ha. Yes, I guess it is, at that. You know, I really enjoy being here.
- Ellen Shanley: I'm glad. I like having you.
- Ellen Shanley: Edwin, do you always where your hair parted in the middle?
- Edwin Dingle: Yes, why?
- Ellen Shanley: Why, I never saw anybody look good with their hair that way, except Hedy Lamarr.
- Policeman in Park: [Kicked in the posterior by Edwin Dingle while drinking at a water fountain in Prospect Park] Why, you!
- Edwin Dingle: Good evening.
- Policeman in Park: What do you think you're doing?
- Edwin Dingle: Oh, forgive me, it was, it was a scientific experiment.
- Policeman in Park: I'll show you an experiment, Einstein!
- Monte Rossen: Alright, Alright, she's waiting for you. Now, be a good Joe, slip her a kiss and square the beef so she'll know you're on the up and up.
- Midge Mallon: Someday, you won't get away with this, Buzzy. Its a good thing I'm as wacky as you are.
- Chimp: Mr. Bellew, Can I have your autograph, please, for the guys in my sorority?
- Buzzy's Ghost: Why, certainly, I'm an old Vassar man, myself.
- Edwin Dingle: I want to explain about last night.
- Ellen Shanley: Well, it better be good. Making me wait hours for potato salad and telephoning me and barking like a dog, meowing like a cat and hooting like an owl.
- District Attorney: Your story is satisfactory except for a few minor details.
- Edwin Dingle: Well, it was quite dark and I may have slipped up on one or two points.
- District Attorney: Yes, in the first place, the tall, thin man with the red beard was a short, fat, fan dancer named Chu-Chu LaVerne!
