Quotes 

  • Monica Rivers : There's nothing certain in show business. We've eaten caviar, and we've eaten sawdust

  • Monica Rivers : [after Matilda is thrown out of Frank's trailer]  Quite a party.

    Frank Hawkins : Don't get the wrong idea.

    Monica Rivers : What? That you've been entertaining a woman in your caravan dressed like that?

    Frank Hawkins : She came in and I threw her out

    Monica Rivers : After two hours?

    Frank Hawkins : Right away!

    Monica Rivers : But why?

    Frank Hawkins : What do you mean?

    Monica Rivers : Well, you're no saint and she's attractive in a common sort of way. Why did you throw her out.

  • Monica Rivers : Oh, you miserable, gutless adding machine! What are you trying to do, ruin my circus?

  • Frank Hawkins : You sure know how to put out a fire.

    Monica Rivers : If you want me to spell it out for you, I will. To me, what we have is no more important than a greeting card, sometimes maybe not as friendly.

  • Albert Dorando : It's a good thing you're inhuman.

    Monica Rivers : We're running a circus, not a charm school!

  • Monica Rivers : The French Revolution could have been avoided if Louis XVI had given the people a reason to celebrate.

    Frank Hawkins : Don't forget what happened to Marie Antoinette.

  • Albert Dorando : How can you be so cold blooded?

    Monica Rivers : Realistic is the word.

  • Monica Rivers : Leave the comedy to Bruno and the rest of the clowns. I haven't time for your grisly jokes.

  • Monica Rivers : Look, don't waste my time with these broken-down has-beens. Some of them are as old as my elephants and twice as wrinkled. I want something fresh! A new face with an exciting act.

  • Monica Rivers : Poor Dorando. Why are you always so depressed? What can I do to cheer you up? You know what? I just may let you tuck me in tonight.

  • Monica Rivers : You slut. You miserable ingrate!

  • Frank Hawkins : Monica, you're playing a dangerous game. Every lie is a trap. When Dorando was killed, I heard you say you were asleep.

    Monica Rivers : Well, I was in bed. Who should know that better than you?

  • Frank Hawkins : With you a man never knows where he stands! First you give and then you hold back. I know you like to let men dangle. Well, that might have worked with Dorando, but, it doesn't with me.

    Monica Rivers : You got Dorando on the brain.

  • Monica Rivers : Naturally, as you say, we did become good friends.

    Superintendent Brooks : Intimate friends?

    Monica Rivers : If what you're trying to find out is whether or not I slept with Dorando, the answer is no.

    Superintendent Brooks : I was sorry I had to press the point, Miss Rivers. You'll understand that we cannot rule out a sex motive for the murder.

  • Monica Rivers : This circus is jinxed. It's becoming a nightmare.

  • Monica Rivers : I've got the jitters! I'm not made of stone.

  • Monica Rivers : Matilda, I left instructions for you to report to me in my caravan before you went on.

    Matilda : I was resting.

    Monica Rivers : Not all of you. Your poisonous tongue, as usual, was very busy.

  • Angela Rivers : I still hoped I had a mother. But, it's funny. All my memories of mother are of teachers and other people who brought me up. I was shuttered around from place to place like a piece of baggage with the wrong address pasted on it.

    Monica Rivers : But, you certainly never *lacked* anything.

    Angela Rivers : No. Except what I needed most. You.
