Sterling Silver Dialogue #18

Sterling Silver Dialogue From The Movies:  

Do you know where they're from?

(to her grocer) "What do you have in the way of steaks?"

(reply) "Nothing in the way of steaks, I can get right to them."

(checking his watch) "This sun dial is ten minutes slow."

(his wife) "Yes, the sun is wrong, but your watch is right. Of course."

(a barber) "Would you like to have anything before lunch?"

(reply) "Yes, breakfast."

"I don't like this innuendo."

(reply) "That's what I always say: love flies out the door when money comes innuendo."

"Nice old piece of melodrama, kidnapping a girl. You've been reading too many dime novels."

"Why don't you go home to your wife? I'll tell you what, I'll go home to your wife, and outside of the improvement she'll never know the difference."

"Dad, let me congratulate you. I'm proud to be your son."

(reply) "My boy, you took the words right out of my mouth. I'm ashamed to be your father. You're a disgrace to our family name of Wagstaff, if such a thing is possible."

"I married your mother because I wanted children. Imagine my disappointment when you arrived."

(predicting what kind of "dish" a mob wife is before meeting her) ”Sixty-cent special. Cheap, flashy. Strictly poison under the gravy.”

"You know that because you’re perfectly sane."
(reply) "I’d rather be insane and alive than sane and dead."

"Well, could I get in touch with you?"

(reply) "You've touched enough already!”

"Alright, get lost. Take a couple of drop dead pills."

"She is beautiful as well as interesting, isn't she?"

(reply) "She's beautiful - that's always interesting."

"Well, what did you think of the picture?"

(reply) "Oh, it was fine. It was just a little long - about an hour and a half."

"Well, you see how it is: fools get away with the impossible."

(reply) "That's because they're the only ones who try it."

"They tell me you killed Ferraro. How did it feel?"

(reply) "He didn't say."

“When I get to likin' someone, they ain't around long.”

(reply) “I notice when you get to DISlikin' someone, they ain't around for long neither.”

"A little earlier I gave some thought to stealin' a kiss from you, although you are very young... and you're unattractive to boot. But now I'm of a mind to give you five or six good licks with my belt."

(reply) "Well, one would be as unpleasant as the other."

"Whenever you want sanctuary, babe, here's where you'll find it...(taps thumb to chest) right here, in the ol' temple."

(reply) "Don't tap your heart, you'll break your finger. And if you're sanctuary, I'll take whatever else is lying around."
