I have quite a few favorites.

Joe - Anything today?
Nellie - Oh, it's you! Well you've got a lot of nerve!
Joe - Thank you! (Slams the door)

Joe - I'm Josephine.
Jerry - And I'm DAPHNE!
Joe - Hmm?

Sweet Sue - Goose it up a little!
Jerry - We'll try...

Jerry - And bring your YACHT!

Osgood - But it's such a waste. A full moon, an empty yacht.
Jerry - I'll throw UP!

Sugar - I don't want you to think I'm a drinker. I can stop any time I want to, only I don't want to.

Jerry - It's like Jell-O on springs!

Osgood - Do you use a bow or do you pluck it?
Jerry - Most of the time I sssslap it!
Osgood - You must be quite a girl.
Jerry - Wanna bet?

Joe - Give him the teeth, the whole personality.

Osgood - Daphne?
Jerry - Hmm?
Osgood - You're leading again.
Jerry - Sorry.

Boy, with a screenplay this great how do you choose?

I'll put this one out there: *Cary Grant Voice*: "They shrink when they're marinated."

That line kills me!




Whistling Wolf should get more camera time . . . he’s like a young Pacino!

This is one of my favorite Comedies and every line is amazing, but there's one subtle bit that kills me every time.

It's the scene where Sugar meets Junior on the beach, and Junior talks about spending time on his yacht. Here's the line:

Sugar: You own a yacht? (Turns around and points to one of the three yachts that are the same size.) Which one is it, the big one?

I laugh my ass off every time. Marilyn's delivery is perfect.
