• Sergeant Sarah Brown : You want to take me to dinner in *Havana, Cuba?*

  Sky Masterson : Well, they eat in Cuba the same as we do.

• Sergeant Sarah Brown : That bacardi flavor, it certainly makes a difference, doesn't it?

  Sky Masterson : Oh, yeah. Nine times out of ten.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : You know, this would be a wonderful way to get children to drink milk!

• Arvide Abernathy : And I never saw until now how much in love with him you are.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : I'll get over it.

  Arvide Abernathy : Why would anyone want to get over the one thing you hope for from the minute you're born and remember until the day you die?

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : I'll get over it.

  Arvide Abernathy : Why? Because it's the greatest reward that woman or man can have on this earth? To love and to be loved?

• Sky Masterson : [reading a verse of the day card]  "There is no peace unto the wicked. Proverbs" This is wrong

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : Let's just say it's a matter of opinion, shall we?

  Sky Masterson : I made a statement of fact. This is wrong.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : How dare you! Even if this is not a church, it is a mission! How dare you blaspheme!

  Sky Masterson : How dare you misquote the Bible!

• Sky Masterson : You know, I imagine there's only one thing that's been in as many different hotel rooms as I have: the Gideon Bible. Don't tangle with me on the Good Book. I must've read it through at least a dozen times.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : If all that was no help to you...

• Sky Masterson : We have time to catch the last plane back to New York.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : People miss planes. It happens.

  Sky Masterson : Yeah? It also happens that people win with loaded dice.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : I know what I'm doing.

  Sky Masterson : Do you, kid?

  [kisses her nose] 

  Sky Masterson : I don't.

• Sky Masterson : You remember that tune pretty well.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : It keeps running through my heart.

  Sky Masterson : It has words, you know.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : Something about "amor, amor" I'll bet.

  Sky Masterson : It's about you. It's about you right now...

  [singing] 

  Sky Masterson : Your eyes are the eyes of a woman in love...

• Sky Masterson : All right. We'll lay it on the line. From now on we'll deal the hand open.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : Could you say that in English?

• Sergeant Sarah Brown : [after Sky confesses that their date is just part of a bet]  Why not? You're a gambler. And darling... you are also a chump.

• Sergeant Sarah Brown : Apparently you're a successful gambler.

  Sky Masterson : Is it wrong to gamble, or only to lose? I'd better come back for help when I'm broke.

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : Please don't misunderstand. It's just so unusual for a successful sinner to be unhappy about sin.

  Sky Masterson : Besides, my unhappiness came up very suddenly. Maybe it'll go away again.

  Arvide Abernathy : We can keep you unhappy, son. Give us a chance.

• Sky Masterson : [after observing that Sarah's mission is doing poorly]  Do I give you a fair rundown?

  Sergeant Sarah Brown : I wouldn't know. I've never had a rundown.

• Sarah Brown : It's so unusual for a successful sinner to be unhappy about sin.
