Mrs. Meredith: He's over to the park arranging a bazaar so as to make money for the fire engines. Mal, you should have known he was at the park. Stationmaster: Knew it all the time, but these men said they wanted to see the house. Can't read their minds if they don't say what they want.

Cedar: [giving his card to Deeds] I'm John Cedar, of the New York firm of Cedar, Cedar, Cedar and Budington. Deeds: [chuckling] Budington must feel like an awful stranger. Deeds: Cedar, Cedar, Cedar and Budington. Funny, I can't think of a rhyme for "Budington". Cobb: Why should you? Deeds: Well, whenever I run across the funny name, I like to poke around for a rhyme.

Deeds: He talks about women as if they were cattle. Walter: Every man to his taste, sir. Deeds: Tell me, Walter. Are all these stories I hear about my uncle true? Walter: Well, sir. He sometimes had as many as 20 in the house at the same time. Deeds: 20! What did he do with them? Walter: That is something I was never able to find out, sir.

Morrow: Pal, look, how would you like to go on a real old-fashioned binge? Deeds: Binge? Morrow: Yeah, I mean the real McCoy. Listen, you play saloon with me and I'll introduce you to every wit, nitwit, and half-wit in New York. We'll go on a twister that'll make Omar the soused philosopher of Persia look like an anemic on a goat's milk diet! Deeds: Well, I guess that oughtta be fun. Morrow: Fun? Listen, I'll take you on a bender that will live in your memory as a thing of beauty and a joy forever!

Morrow: You hop aboard my magic carpet and I'll show you sights that you've never seen before. Deeds: Well, I'd kinda like to see Grant's tomb and the Statue of Liberty. Morrow: Well, you'll not only see those, but before the evening's half through, you'll be leaning against the Leaning Tower of Pisa, you'll mount Mount Everest, I'll show you the Pyramids and all the little pyramidees, leaping from sphinx to sphinx!
