Quotes from
Syrette: I remember very well, sir. It was, if I may take the liberty of repeating it, 'Nuts to the squirrels.'
Sir Henry Carmel: Doesn't make sense!
Adam Belinski: No, it doesn't. It should be 'Squirrels to the nuts.' But I have an open mind, and if someone says to me 'Nuts to the squirrels,' I accept it. You may be inclined to say that to me yourself some day, when you know me better - and I'm not so sure that you will include the 'squirrels.'
Sir Henry Carmel: [shaking his head] That's much too deep for me.
Cluny Brown: You must never become a victim of my circumstances, and, if you should ever seem romantic to me - don't hesitate. Just kick me.
Adam Belinski: Yes, let's kick each other.
Hilary Ames: Relieve the drain, relieve the strain.
