"I hope you get stabbed by a Studebaker!"

"What do you mean? A marker isn't just a piece of paper that says, 'I.O.U. 1000 dollars signed Nathan Detroit.' It's like a pledge that a guy can't welch on it. It's like not saluting the flag! My marker's as good as gold, only Joey Biltmore don't think so!"

"Gettin' married ain't something you can just jump into like it was a kettle of fish! We ain't ready!"

"A guy without a doll? Well, if a guy does not have a doll, who would holler on him? A doll is a necessity!"

"Maybe you do need this week away alone. Maybe we both do. I know what's going on inside of you, Frank. You're just like any other man, only a little more so. You have a feeling of being trapped, hemmed in, and you don't know whether or not you like it."
