- Judy Linden: Hannah's quoting the bible again. One of these days we're going to put her in all the hotel rooms.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: [to Henry] If only I liked you a little less and loved you a little more.
- Henry Linden: [Sarcastically] Hannah, why don't you have all your teeth pulled out? It sometimes helps.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: I, uh, wish Judy had been able to ride with us. I like her.
- David Linden: She adores you.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: I detest women as a rule. I know too much about them.
- Henry Linden: [walking into the library and turning on the lights to discover a couple kissing on a couch] Bookworms.
- David Linden: Friends of yours?
- Henry Linden: Friends of each other, I hope.
- Judy Linden: Oh, and if they show any immediate tendency to break an important commandment, whistle, will you?
- Judy Linden: Oh, your maid got in this morning... she has already been chased by bulls.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: Well, don't worry about Belvedere; by tomorrow she'll be chasing them!
- Henry Linden: [Referring to Maggie] Hannah, isn't she all I said?
- Hannah Linden: [Cattily] I'm sure she is, Henry, and more.
- Hannah Linden: Coffee, David?
- David Linden: I don't want any.
- Hannah Linden: You should. You've had no sleep.
- David Linden: I'm quite aware of that, Hannah. I don't want any coffee. I tell ya I don't want any!
- Hannah Linden: David!
- David Linden: Oh stop Daviding me. Minding other people's business. That's what's wrong with you, you haven't enough of your own. Well I'll give you some!
- [picks coffee cup up and smashes it on the floor]
- David Linden: There, get busy with that. Lots of little pieces, Hannah, just for you. Try to put them together again. We'll all be busy doing that!
- David Linden: Now you're just being cheap.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: I am rather cheap. Have you only just realised it?
- Henry Linden: Uh, Wisconsin's pretty famous for its potatoes.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: Ohh, I haven't eaten one in 7 years.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: You're a funny kind of farmer, David. Do you like it?
- David Linden: [as he plays the piano] Some of the time.
- Olivia 'Maggie' Riley Linden: And the rest of the time?
- David Linden: I hate it.
- [stops playing piano]
- David Linden: But I've been that way always about everything. I want what I haven't got, and I'm bored with what I have. But I've stopped wondering about it. I just call myself a neurotic.
- [chuckles]
- Hannah Linden: I'm sorry, Judy. My intentions were good.
- Judy Linden: Yes, I'm sure they were, Hannah. It's just that you were born with a strong sense of interference, and I'm... afraid you'll die with one.
- Hannah Linden: [to Henry] A woman's love should only go one way, to one man. There are women whose love reaches out to every man, like the tongues of a fire that capture and consume. Send her away, Henry, before she destroys us all!
