Quotes from

Cleo Marsh: But I thought you had money, Allen.
Allen Drew: I did. Enough, anyway. I guess I didn't take care of it very well.
Cleo Marsh: Well, what are you going to do now?
Allen Drew: I suppose I could get a job somewhere, and maybe save up enough money to do the show. That needn't change our plans about marriage any, Cleo. I don't suppose money is very important to people who are really in love.
Cleo Marsh: You can say that because you've always had money.
Allen Drew: Perhaps.
Cleo Marsh: I'm afraid this changes everything.
Allen Drew: Then you're not really in love with me.


Prof. Eustace Appleby: I was quite a matinee idol in those days, you know. I still get letters from ladies in the towns where I played.
Dimples: Yes, landladies.


Dimples: I didn't steal anything. Honest, I didn't. I'm too little. Won't you let me go?
Mrs. Caroline Drew: Where would you go?
Dimples: Home.
Mrs. Caroline Drew: Where's home?
Dimples: With the Professor.
Mrs. Caroline Drew: The Professor? Who's the Professor?
Dimples: Oh, don't you know him? Why, everybody knows the Professor. He's a fine gentleman and an "aristocrack."
