[singing] The moment I saw him smileI knew he was just my style.My only regret is we've never met,Though I dream of him all the while.

[singing] How can I ignore the Boy Next Door?I love him more than I can say.Doesn't try to please me, doesn't even tease me.And he never sees me glance his way.And though I'm heartsore, the Boy Next Door,Affection for me won't display.I just adore him, so I can't ignore him,The Boy Next Door.

[to Mr. Smith] Well, Papa, if losing a case depresses you so, why don't you quit practicing law and go into another line of business?

[to Mr. Smith, after he hangs up on a caller] You've just ruined Rose's chance to get married, that's all...That was Warren Sheffield calling long-distance to propose.

Well, I'll bet there isn't another girl in St. Louis who's had a Yale man call her long-distance just to inquire about her health.

[singing] Clang, clang, clang went the trolley,Ding, ding, ding went the bell.Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings,As we started for Huntingdon dell.

[singing] I went to lose a jolly, hour on the trolley, and lost my heart insteadWith his light brown derby and his bright green tieHe was quite the handsomest of menI started to yen, then I counted to ten, then I counted to ten again.

John Truett. I've come here to ask you something...What do you mean hitting a nine-year-old child?...The next time you want to hit somebody, pick on somebody your own size. If there's anything I hate, loathe, despise, and abominate, it's a bully.

[after finding out that Tootie had lied about John Truett] You're the most deceitful, horrible, sinful creature I ever saw, and I don't ever want to have anything to do with you again.

[to her Grandpa] You're the first human being I've danced with all evening. It's our last dance in St. Louis. I feel like I'm going to cry.
