• Shirley Feeney : I'm stuck up here and I can't get down, come get me!

  Laverne DeFazio : Nobody ever got stuck on a rope!

• Shirley Feeney : Any woman that could run that obstacle course in 40 seconds would have to be a freak of nature.

  Laverne DeFazio : I just did it!

• Shirley Feeney : You were always great at those athletic things like running and jumping and scraping your knees. I was never good at that stuff.

  Laverne DeFazio : That's because you hated scabs.

  Shirley Feeney : I didn't hate them, my family didn't allow me to have them. I wanted to have scabs!

• Capt. Schmidt : I told you this was a bad idea, Schmidt, dames should stay barefoot and pregnant.

  Laverne DeFazio : Barefoot and pregnant huh?

  [hands him hers and Shirley's purses] 

  Laverne DeFazio : I'll show you barefoot and pregnant!

  [runs the entire obstacle course in 37 seconds]
