Angela Bonfils: There's nothing wrong with you. Charlie Hill: Yes there is, I'm in love. Angela Bonfils: Love. Charlie Hill: You probably don't know about love. Angela Bonfils: Well I certainly know it isn't about being numb, weak at the knees.
Hills' Butler: Did you shoot mam? Dixie 'Deadshot' McCoy: The shooting's just beginning.
Mrs Phineas Hill: All the cheques I've written to Charles, five of them. Supposedly for his pet charities. Well I'm through being charitable to everyone he pets.
Charlie Hill: Peanuts. I only wish they were diamonds. Angela Bonfils: That's silly, you can't eat diamonds. Charlie Hill: Diamonds buy a lot of peanuts. Angela Bonfils: I got a lot of peanuts.
Charlie Hill: It's not obscene, it's French. Mrs Phineas Hill: French is obscene! One of Frenchie's girls: What is the meaning of this obscene? Charlie Hill: It means you better go. One of Frenchie's girls: Very well then, I obscene!
Charlie Hill: I guess I just seem to lose interest in any girl who'd marry a fella like me.
Mrs Phineas Hill: And when you leave, take Buffalo Bill with you!
Charlie Hill: Can I have a magazine? I'll treasure this all my life, I'll sleep with it under my pillow. Angela Bonfils: It would do you more good if you read it.
