Quotes 

• Martin Snyder : Come on, Claire.

  Claire : What?

  Martin Snyder : Get out. Here, buy yourself a horse and buggy. Only beat it.

  Claire : Well Marty, what's the matter? You invite me out for a pleasant evening. I wait who knows how long...

  Martin Snyder : So I changed my mind. Go on, blow.

  [pats Claire's behind, she leaves, to his assistant] 

  Martin Snyder : Getting awful beat up, that Claire. Been around too long.

• Claire : Can she sing?

  Martin Snyder : What is she, a dummy? Anybody can sing. Put them on a stage. Tell the public they're singers. And they're singers. What does the public know?

• Bernard V. Loomis : You think the Gimp found out you talked to the girl?

  Claire : Maybe. If he has, you think I should crawl into the laundry and apologize?

  Bernard V. Loomis : Well, I would. But I'm an old man and I want to live. What else have I got?
