When Howard Doyle says to her, while he's eating the mancy prenup(sp) "I love you like a son of a bitc*"

Great line, there were a bunch of other's but can't quite remember.

Miles:What are those Ladels?

Miles"Spoons?
Ridley:Berry Spoons! Everbody eats Berries!
Miles:What are you Pollyanna?



"Humor is how we find comfort in the totally illogical, for it is the bridge back to the logical"

1)Rex Rexroth: Have you sat before her before?
Miles Massey: No. No, the judge sits first. Then we sit.
Rex Rexroth: Well, have you sat after her before?
Wrigley: Sat after her before? You mean, have we argued before her before?
Miles Massey: The judge sits in judgment. The counsel argues before the judge.
Rex Rexroth: So, have you argued before her before?
Wrigley: Before her before, or before she sat before?
Rex Rexroth: Before her before. I said, before her before.
Wrigley: No, you said before she sat before.
Rex Rexroth: I did at first, but...
Miles Massey: Look, don't argue.
Rex Rexroth: I'm not. I'm...
Wrigley: No, you don't argue. We argue.
Miles Massey: Counsel argues.
Wrigley: You appear.
Miles Massey: The judge sits.
Wrigley: Then you sit.
Miles Massey: Or you stand in contempt.
Wrigley: And then we argue.
Miles Massey: The counsel argues.
Rex Rexroth: Which you've done before.
Miles Massey: Which we've done before.
Rex Rexroth: Ah.
Wrigley: But not before her

2)Miles Massey: All right, so much for the ice-breakers. What are you after, Freddy?
[takes a drink of water]
Freddy Bender: My client is prepared to settle for 50 percent of the marital assets.
[Miles spits out some water]
Miles Massey: Why only 50, Freddy? Why not a hundred? While we're dreaming, why not 150? Are you familiar with "Kershner"?
Freddy Bender: "Kershner" does not apply.
Miles Massey: Bring this to trial, we'll see if "Kershner" applies.
Rex: What's "Kershner"?
Miles Massey: Please, let me handle this.
Freddy Bender: "Kershner" was in Kentucky.
Miles Massey: "Kershner" was in Kentucky?
Freddy Bender: "Kershner" was in Kentucky.
Miles Massey: All right, Freddy, forget "Kershner". What's your bottom line?
Freddy Bender: Primary residence, 30 percent of remaining assets.
Miles Massey: What, are you nuts? Have you forgotten "Kershner"?

Miles: Red?
Marylin: French?
Miles: Bordeaux?
Marylin: Chateau Margot?
Miles '57
Marylin: '59
Miles: '54
Marylin: Mmm Mr. Massey
Miles: Your husband had told me you were the most beautiful woman he'd ever met. I didn't expect the most beautiful woman I'd ever met.
Marylin: Dismiss your vows, your feigned tears, your flattery, for where a heart is hard, they make no battery.
Miles: Whoever loved that did not love at first sight?
Marylin: Now, you didn't ask me here to pick me up. You could be disbarred for that.
Miles: Maybe I'm reckless.
Marylin: What was your performance about this afternoon?
Miles: What did your lawyer say?
Marylin: Well Freddy thinks you're a buffoon. He says you've been too successful, you're bored, complacent, and you're on your way down.
Miles: But you don't think so.
Marylin: How do you know?
Miles: Why would you be here?
Marylin: Why did you ask me?
Miles: Can't I be curious?
Marylin: About what?
Miles: Do you ever answer questions?
Marylin: Do you?
Miles: [to waiter] I'll have the tournadoes and beef, the lady will have the same. [to Marylin] I assume you're a carnivore.
Marylin: [laughs] Oh, Mr. Massey, you have no idea.
Miles: Miles, please. Tell me more about yourself.
Marylin: All right, Miles, let me tell you everything you need to know. You may think you're tough, but i eat men like you for breakfast. I've invested five good years in my marriage to Rex and I've nailed his a** fair and square. Now I'm going to have it stuffed, mounted, and have my lady friends come over and throw darts at it.
Miles: Man-hater huh?
Marylin: People don't go on safaris 'cause they hate animals
Miles: So it's just for the hunt--with the trophy at the end.
Marylin: No, nothing so frivolous. This divorce means money, money means independence, that's what I'm after. What are you after, Miles?
Miles: Oh, I'm a lot like you. Just looking for an a** to mount.
Marylin: [pause] [whisper] Well, don't look at mine.



CZJ is my IDOL!!!

Not a line, but the slogan on the banner behind the podium at the divorce attorneys' association (N.O.M.A.N.) conference-

"Let N.O.M.A.N. Put Asunder"

*Danny's not here, Mrs. Torrance*

"But, darling, you're EXPOSED!" Typical lawyer-type thing to say in the middle of a romantic moment.

Gus: "I'm a man of ample proportions, but don't be fooled. I'm not some cream-puff, getting-fat-behind-a-desk private dick. I'm an ass-nailer." [paraphrased]

Miles: "Marilyn! What a pleasant surp --- Who the hell are you?"

Miles: "She ... she won't suffer, will she?"
Wheezy Joe: "Not unless you pay extra."

The Kirshner exchange was also hysterical.

"Never again" would be a more convincing promise if the atrocities had ever stopped.

Miles Massey: "Dismiss your vows, your feigned tears, your flattery, for where a heart is hard, they make no battery..." Mrs. Rexroth, do you know those lines?

Freddy Bender: Objection, your honor!

Judge Marva Munson: Grounds?

Freddy Bender: Uh... poetry recitation...

-----

Freddy: Whatever. A burglar broke in intending to loot the place, uh, repented, became despondent over his lifestyle and shot himself.

There are so many classic lines, it's hard to chose!
