• Bob Wallace : We came up here for the snow. Where're you keepin' it?

  Emma Allen : Well, we take it in during the day!

• Judy Haynes : [inquiring about the inn]  Well, are things really that bad?

  Emma Allen : We're using the ski tow to hang the wash on.

• Emma Allen : [Regarding the inn]  He sunk everything - his pension, his life savings - EVERYTHING in remodeling this place. Used to be a grist mill and a barn; now it's a Tyrolean haunted house.

• Emma Allen : Oh, my word, if I wasn't such a mean old biddy, I'd break right down and cry.

• Gen. Thomas F. Waverly : How could you have sent all my suits to the cleaners?

  Emma Allen : [laconically]  You've only got two.

  Gen. Thomas F. Waverly : Well, I think you'd send one at a time then, in that case.
