Professor Olivier:
When I married her, she was a brunette. Now you can't believe anything she says.
Uncle Willie: [watching Kittredge clumsily mount a horse] Heigh Ho Silver.
[the Earl is telling Ruggles why he'll be going to America with the Flouds]
Earl of Burnstead, aka George: His wife took quite a fancy to you... and, uh, so they... won you.
Ruggles: Won me, m'lord?
Earl of Burnstead, aka George: Oh, yes, yes, yes. We were playing this game of drawing poker, you see, and it seems there's a thing called 'bluffing'. Though I say it, myself, I'm particularly good at it.
Ruggles: Do I understand... that I was the stake, m'lord?
Earl of Burnstead, aka George: Oh, yes, yes, rather, yes. Yes, you see I didn't realize that they were bluffing, too. I, uh, I had three of the eights against a flush of clubs. So you really only lost by one eight.
Ruggles: Indeed, m'lord.
Earl of Burnstead, aka George: Oh, yes. I do hope you don't think I didn't lose you gamely as a gentleman should.
