• Miele : A long time ago, I was just like you are.

  Claudia : What happened? What happened?

  Miele : What happened? I just hopped on a train. I didn't have any dough. What's more, I didn't know where I was going. I was free. As free as a bird, baby.

• Miele : Now look here, the important thing here is to keep as far away from the fuzz as we can. Okay?

• Miele : You are a hick from a teeny weeny place. And I - I've got the whole world at my feet. Get it?

• Claudia : What happened then?

  Miele : We made love for two days.

  Claudia : It must have been great. You didn't get married, did you?

  Miele : I don't marry gigolos.

• Miele : If you wanna be free, you'll drink like me, okay? And now that you know how a liberated woman drinks, we'll make a toast. To adventure!

  Miele : He's around six-three. Yeah, like Marlon Brando. I'm around five-ten. That's pretty tall for a chick.

• Miele : [singing]  Motorcycle fever, You got hold of me, Your body's all shiny, That's the only way to be, I'd give my life for you, They'll never take you away...

• Miele : Hitchhiking is an *art* and I'm an expert at it. I've been around the world three times, just using my thumb.

  Claudia : No, they locked us out.

  Claudia : Hey, what are we going to do now?

  Miele : That's right. Oh, let's just start walking, okay?

• Claudia : When you two are together, what do you do all day?

  Claudia : With my husband I never really enjoyed it.
