Diane Quote #146

Quote from Diane in Someone Single, Someone Blue

Boggs: I heard of your tragedy. I'd be honored if you'd consent to be my wife.
Helen: It's too late for that.
Boggs: No. I meant you, madam.
Helen: Why, Boggs, have you lost your mind? I mean, I've only accepted your familiarity over the years because I was afraid of class warfare.
Boggs: I am aware of that. However, in view of the developments in the last half an hour, our stations have, shall we say, grown a little closer. Now, then, Boggs Madam, it so happens, I have a considerable sum of money stashed away.
Helen: Really? Where did you get it, Boggs?
Boggs: From you and yours, madam. I've been embezzling from your family for close to a quarter of a century.
Helen: Why, Boggs, how clever of you. Exactly how much money do you have?
Boggs: As I recall my Emily Post, a lady does not ask her chauffeur how much he stole from her dead husband. Let us just say, I am very comfortable. Shall we go to dinner and talk about the future?
Diane: Bon appetit.
Helen: You know, Boggs, I must confess, I've always found the back of your head enormously attractive.
Boggs: I sensed it, madam. Uh, would you do me a favor, madam?
Helen: What's that?
Boggs: Would you drive?
Helen: Oh, kinky.

Quote from Carla

Helen: Darling, think hard. There's so little time. Don't you know anyone who'd be willing to marry you for a few days?
Diane: Well, I'm afraid there's no one that I'm steadily dating at the moment.
Carla: Excuse me, rich lady. You know, I couldn't help overhearing your problems. Your daughter has a hot thing for the bartender.
Diane: I do not!
Helen: She likes Red? He's dumb enough to be your father.
Carla: Not him. Sam.
Diane: I care nothing. I feel nothing. Sam who?
Carla: Hey, come off it. You know, we've all noticed how you two go around, looking at each other like lovesick cows. Admit it. He's got you steaming under the silks.
Diane: This happens to be my mother.
Carla: Well, that's why I'm being delicate.

Quote from Sam

Quote from Norm

Diane: You're taking this all too personally and you shouldn't. It's just Mommy doesn't like bars.
Norm: Well, bars can be very sad places. Some people spend their whole lives in a bar. Just yesterday, some guy sat right here next to me for 11 hours.
Cliff: Yeah, what kind of a life is that?
Norm: Well, it's pitiful. You know, the sad thing is, you know that guy will be sitting in a bar somewhere right now, drinking a beer, going on and on about nothing.
