Sam Quote #251
Quote from Sam in How Do I Love Thee, Let Me Call You Back
Diane: Oh, Sam, I couldn't wait to see you after an excruciating week of deep and torturous soul searching. But I wouldn't want to get in the way of your fun times.
Sam: No, no, come on, you're right. It's a victory party. You see, I got it.
Diane: You got what?
Sam: Our relationship. I mean, tonight, all of a sudden, it came perfectly clear and I decided to celebrate there.
Diane: Oh, Sam, that's wonderful. Well, tell me.
Sam: Oh, I can't wait to tell you. I can't wait. But I just need a couple of minutes, uh, to polish it up. It's pretty good. It's pretty good, but I need to rearrange the words a little bit. Two minutes?
Diane: Of course.
Sam: [blows a kiss at Diane] [to the group] Stall.

Quote from Diane
Diane: This is the way I describe our relationship. It's more than like. Beyond fondness. Verging on deep affection. There's a vital physical component, bordering on the passionate. However, it has not reached the level at which we will abandon our reservations about a complete commitment. Well, that's how I see things.
Sam: Ditto.
Diane: Ditto? You're telling me I waited a week for "ditto"?
Sam: You took my answer. [Diane goes to leave] All right, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No more stalling. No more stalling. I'll just tell you right here. I couldn't come up with anything. I'm sorry. I really wanted to do this. I don't understand. I'm usually so good under pressure, but I just drew a blank. Honey, I have no idea why we're together.
Diane: [sobs] Sam, neither do l.
Sam: You don't?
Diane: I don't have a clue.
Sam: Well, what about what you just said?
Diane: Oh, I read it in a book. It sounded nice, but it's not us. Is it?
Sam: I don't know. I wasn't listening.

Carla: ...they were two old men.
Diane: They succumbed to my charms.
Carla: Oh. They were two blind men.
Quote from Diane
