1. "Your advertising is just dandy. Folks'd never guess you didn't have a thing to sell."
2. "We'll always have Paris."
3. "See 'ya, Katie." "See 'ya, Hubbell."
4. "Look at me! I'm melting, melting! You've destroyed all my beautiful wickedness!"
5. "Hello, gorgeous."
6. "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli."
7. "War talk's spoiling all the fun at every party this spring."
8. "Sparkle, Neely, sparkle!"
9. "You're a swine."
10. "In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and SNAP! The job's a game."
