Quotes 

• Ed Norton : Now, listen, Ralph, as long as we're neighbors, you don't have to call me Norton. Call me Eduardo!

• Ralph : [to Carlos Sanchez]  I want to tell you something. You've got some nerve parading around in front of our wives with the fancy manners. We have to eat cold suppers on account of your teaching them the mambo. Let me tell you something. It's easy for you, you know, to play Sir Galahad. You don't do any work. When you go to work, you *dance*! That's no work! When *we* go to work, we work. *Dirty* work!

  [holds up his hands] 

  Ralph : Just notice the difference between my hands and your hands. That'll show you the difference in work.

  [gestures toward Norton] 

  Ralph : The difference between your hands and *my friend's* hands!

  Ed Norton : Now, wait a minute. It's not fair to compare his to mine. I mean, I got mine in the water all day.

  Ralph : Aw, shut up.

• Ed Norton : Hello, Mrs. Kramden. It's nice of you to have us. My, what a beautiful place you have here! By the way - mambo, anyone?

  Trixie : Not now, Ed.

  [to Alice] 

  Trixie : He's had me doing the mambo all morning!

  Ed Norton : Pardon me, Mrs. Kramden. Is your spouse on the premises?

  Alice : He's in the bedroom making the bed.

  Ed Norton : Oh, what a gentlemanly thing to do! If you will allow me to take my leave, I will retire to the boudoir and join my bosom companion.

  [He mambos out of the room]
