Sam Quote #514

Quote from Sam in Someday My Prince Will Come

Sam: Hey, will you stop being hard on yourself? I mean, that's my job here. Come on. You had, what, few casual dates with him? What's the big deal?
Diane: Yes, but as often happens in my life, this gentleman is becoming much too serious, much too fast. He's wearing that smitten look I know so well. I've got to do something before it goes any further.
Sam: Uh-huh, I see.
Diane: For the first time in my life I can't bring myself to tell the truth to a man so I need a lie. And God forgive me, I'm coming to you for help.
Sam: Well, I'm flattered. All right, let me... Let me give this a little thought here. All right. All right, I've never passed this one on before, but I think it's-- I think it's the ticket here. It's neat, fast, clean and, best of all, it makes them want to get away from you. Now, here's what you do. You tell him that you have a contagious skin condition and that insanity runs in your family.
Diane: Very sensitive.
Sam: Well, thank you. It's a gift.

Quote from Carla

Carla: Making a date with a stranger over the telephone is a big mistake, Diane. I tried it. It was nothing but trouble. Of course, mine was an obscene phone call.

Quote from Sam

Diane: For the first time in my life, I let appearance taint my feelings toward a man.
Sam: Boy, you know what's wrong with you? You just can't be honest with yourself. Looks are all that ever mattered to you.
Diane: What are you talking about? That is utterly inaccurate.
Sam: Oh, yeah? Want me to prove it to you?
Diane: Yes.
Sam: Who were you more crazy about than anyone else in your entire life? Uh, not including yourself there. Don't answer. It was me. And there was only one reason why you ever went out with me, and that was because of my looks.
Diane: Not entirely.
Sam: Yes, entirely. Name one other reason why anyone would go out with me. Go on, name one. You can't, can you?
Diane: No, Sam, I can't. [Sam laughs; everyone cheers]

Quote from Woody

Woody: You know, you ought to ask Mr. Clavin. He's very sharp. He's got more information in his whole head than I got in my little finger.
Cliff: Uh, you got that backwards.
Woody: See?
