• Shad Nathan : You're emotionally upset. Have a glass of water.

  Valerie Edwards : I don't want a glass of water, I want a divorce!

• Saleslady at Saks : Now, this

  [black negligee] 

  Saleslady at Saks : just came in, direct from Paris and it looks like you. It's called Viva la Derriere. Trust me. It will be perfect for what you want.

  Valerie Edwards : Wow! It better do what I want. It costs more than a washing machine.

  Saleslady at Saks : Now, listen, this will do things a washing machine never even thought of.

• Valerie Edwards : Oh, sit down, Ernie, I'm not trying to make a pass at you. I'm merely trying to find out if anything's wrong with me.

  Ernie Brewer : There's nothing wrong with you, Val, you're just as attractive today as you were the day I met you. In fact, I think you're much better looking now than you were then. And if I'm right, you were quite skinny.

  Valerie Edwards : I wasn't skinny, I was 18. There's a difference.

• Shad Nathan : Now, I get the picture. Dan is pre-occupied with his work. He feels sure of you. You feel neglected. You're getting a little older.

  Valerie Edwards : A lot older! I told you, I'm a realist.

  Shad Nathan : And, you're starting to feel insecure. Now, what do we do about it?

  Valerie Edwards : We stop playing analyst and we sit down and draw up the divorce papers. Everybody's getting a divorce. I'll be one of the IN people.

• Shad Nathan : The basis for an annulment is the non-consummation of a marriage.

  Valerie Edwards : Well, that's obvious. I only love Dan. I merely substituted Ernie for your black negligee.

• Valerie Edwards : Oh, by the way dear, get that thing off your leg by tonight, we're going dancing.
