Dinner at Eight
1933
Carlotta Vance: If there's one thing I know, it's men. I ought to. It's been my life's work.
Kitty: I was reading a book the other day. Carlotta: Reading a book? Kitty: Yes. It's all about civilization or something. A nutty kind of a book. Do you know that the guy says that machinery is going to take the place of every profession? Carlotta: Oh, my dear, that's something you need never worry about.
Kitty Packard: Politics? Ha! You couldn't get into politics. You couldn't get in anywhere. You couldn't even get in the mens' room at the Astor!
Carlotta Vance: And then I had a restful, nice luncheon... with 4 lawyers. On the 88th floor of the Watson's building. You know, the sky club. A cloud floated right into my soup plate.
Dan Packard: Aw, go lay an egg.
Millicent Jordan: You're joking! Ask that common little woman to the house with that noisy, vulgar man? He smells Oklahoma!
Kitty: I've told you a million times not to talk to me when I'm doing my lashes!
Kitty: I'm going to be a lady if it kills me.
Kitty: (stage whispers during the dinner) Go on, tell Jordan. Dan Packard: Shut up. Kitty: Go on, and tell 'im. Dan Packard: Shut up. Kitty: If ya don't, you'll be sorry as long as you live. Dan Packard: Shut up, shut up, shut up. Sh - shut up.
