Quote from George in The Chaperone
George: Hey, did you know that the Yankees don't wear cotton jerseys?

‘The Chaperone’ Quotes
Quote from Elaine
Mrs. Landis: Of course, Jackie O. was a great lady. Those are going to be some tough shoes to fill. Everyone loved her. She had such... grace.
Elaine: Yes. Grace.
Mrs. Landis: Not many people have grace.
Elaine: Well, you know, grace is a tough one. I like to think I have a little grace. Not as much as Jackie.
Mrs. Landis: You can't have "a little grace." You either have grace, or you... don't.
Elaine: Okay, fine, I have... no grace.
Mrs. Landis: And you can't acquire grace.
Elaine: Well, I have no intention of "getting" grace.
Mrs. Landis: Grace isn't something you can pick up at the market.
Elaine: All right, all right, look. I don't have grace, I don't want grace... I don't even say grace, okay?
Mrs. Landis: Thank you for coming in.
Elaine: Yeah, yeah, right.
Mrs. Landis: We'll make our choice in a few days, and we'll let you know.
Elaine: [stands up] I have no chance, do I?
Mrs. Landis: No. [they shake hands]
Quote from Jerry
[stand-up:]
Jerry: I've always wondered why baseball is so associated with sex. "He's playing the field," "Ho, he scored," "Oh, he didn't get to first base." "I struck out." "Why?" "She wanted a diamond." It's always baseball. Always baseball. As far as baseball goes, I prefer the fat umpires. I feel if you're on the field and you're not in the game, you should be in the worst physical condition a human being could possibly be in. They should be allowed to eat during the game. We're a little too into sports in this country. I think we gotta throttle back. You know what I mean? People come home from these games, "We won! We won!" No, they won, you watched.
Quote from Elaine
Woman: [over intercom] Justin Pitt to see you.
Elaine: Justin Pitt?
Mrs. Landis: He was a very close friend of Mrs. Onassis's.
Elaine: "Mrs. Onassis's"? That's hard to pronounce.
Mrs. Landis: Excuse me?
Elaine: Nothing.
[Mr. Pitt enters the office with a stack of papers]
Mr. Pitt: Mrs. Landis, there's something wrong with this copying machine, it's all coming out slanted. Now, I don't know if this is your department or not.
Mr. Pitt: Justin Pitt, this is Elaine Benes.
[Elaine has wrapped a scarf around her hair and put black glasses on. Mr. Pitt is taken aback by her resemblance to Jackie O.]
Mr. Pitt: Charmed.
Elaine: I was a great admirer of Mrs. Onass-sis-sis-sis...
