Hattie Loomis : [responding to Millicent Jordans' upset about a dinner guest cancelling] I never could understand why it has to be just even, male and female. They're invited for dinner, not for mating.

Kitty : I like it in New York in the summer! Gee, I've had some swell times on Penthouse parties.
Hattie Loomis : All my life I've wanted to be a Penthouse girl.
Ed Loomis : [Skeptically] Yeh, you'd be good at that.
-
Millicent Jordan : I don't know where I'm going to find someone to fit in with the Ferncliffes.
Hattie Loomis : Only a rubber plant would fit in with the Ferncliffes.

Hattie Loomis : Ed hates anything that keeps him from going to the movies every night. I guess I'm what's called a Garbo widow.
-
Hattie Loomis : Now, Ed, it isn't going to be so terrible.
Ed Loomis : Not so terrible? Getting into this uniform to meet a bunch of fatheads I don't want to know and miss that Greta Garbo picture I've been waiting for - for two months! It's your idea of terrible!

Millicent Jordan : Let's see. I'll put him between Carlotta and that Packard woman.
Hattie Loomis : See if you can get him first and let nature take its course.
Millicent Jordan : I do hope he's free for tonight.
Hattie Loomis : Free, white and forty-five.
