- Stanley Farquhar: "Can we be overheard?" What's the matter with you, can't you read or something?
- Dr. Francis Trevelyan: No, I have a monkey outside that can write better than that.
- Stanley Farquhar: Do you know what I got in there?
- Dr. Francis Trevelyan: Not until you open it.
- Stanley Farquhar: No, of course not.
- Stanley Farquhar: Now don't you forget, Elsie, when we get inisde, if you hear anything you're not supposed to hear: don't listen!
- Dr. Francis Trevelyan: Look at these absurd clothes your department have given me. Me, the third best dressed man in the whole world, four years running. Not even a collar!
- Stanley Farquhar: You're supposed to be a gardner, not the Duke of Windsor!
- Stanley Farquhar: Blast!
- Wrigley: Blast!
- Stanley Farquhar: What a time to run away, the dopey dog! I never liked dogs. You can't trust them. Women and dogs and kids. They'll always let you down!
- Wrigley: Always!
