Quote from Harry in From Top to Bottom

Benny: So, Tim, we haven't seen much of you lately. Should I take that personally?
Tim: Yes. I've been working really hard on my hot rod. I was trying to get this thing done by Friday.
Harry: Well, you must have been busy. You haven't spent any money here in weeks. I had to cancel my trip to Hawaii.
Al: I just talked to Delores. She didn't say anything about a trip.
Harry: Delores wasn't invited. Besides, she's on her own vacation. She's scaring the bulls in Pamplona.

Quote from Jill

Barbra Canfield: Jill, you're the psychologist. What do you think is going on under the surface with these guys?
Jill: Well, it's very common. Often a man feels threatened when a woman usurps his role as hunter-gatherer. I think that's Diane & Kathleen's husbands reacted the way they did.
Barbra Canfield: Well, why do you think your husband is so understanding? Why is he the exception to the rule?
Jill: Well, Tim is one of a kind. I mean, Tim breaks all the rules. Tim breaks everything.

Quote from Jill

Barbra Canfield: Jill, how did your husband react when you told him you were going back to school?
Jill: Tim?
Barbra Canfield: If that's your husband.
Jill: Well, as memory serves, he was very supportive.
Kathleen: Boy, I wish I had a husband like yours. Mine's a total caveman.
Diane: Mine, too. When I told him I wanted my own career, he couldn't even articulate words. He just kind of went...
Jill: [grunts]
Diane: How did you know that?
Jill: Lucky guess.

Quote from Jill

Jill: All these women were trashing their husbands. And I didn't wanna do that, you know. I wanted to explain Tim's behavior.
Wilson: Well, who were these women?
Jill: Oh, they were very successful professional women. One was a doctor. The other was an economist.
Wilson: Mm-hm, mm-hm, mm-hm.
Jill: Oh, I see what you're saying.
Wilson: All I said was, "Mm-hm, mm-hm, mm-hm."
Jill: But what you meant was that the reason that I was analyzing Tim was because I was insecure around these successful women and felt I needed to show off how much I knew about psychology.
Wilson: Mm-hm, mm-hm, mm-hm.
Jill: You make another good point. I mean, I was validated for what I said, so I went on and on and on and on.
Wilson: Mm-hm, mm-hm, mm-hm.
Jill: I sold Tim out to make myself look good.
Wilson: Mm.
Jill: Wow. You're really tough on me sometimes, Wilson. But you don't make me feel judged. You know? You are just a genius. How do you do that?
Wilson: I just tell it like it is.
