Quotes
-
Anita Woverman : I really do need the work, though. After all, a woman who's just been divorced...
Countess Oldenburg : My dear, in this house, we do not recognize divorce. We believe in love, even if it is no use to us now.
-
Countess Oldenburg : Go on, wake him up. Poke him. Give him a poke.
Anita Woverman : Never wake a man with a poke. He'd be grouchy all day.
Countess Oldenburg : Well, how would you awaken him?
Anita Woverman : Well, you can sing to him, kiss him, or tickle his feet.
-
Anita Woverman : [sneezing] Must you bring mimosa?
Major Zellfritz : Tch, tch, tch, tch, tch. I want you to use your will power. Do not sneeze. Defy it.
-
Major Zellfritz : Does the divorce mean nothing to you? Legally, this man is a stranger to you now. You must not allow him to kiss you.
Anita Woverman : Well, I know I shouldn't major, but, well it's just a habit I guess.
-
Major Zellfritz : Have you a baby picture like this?
Anita Woverman : No, but I'm going to have one taken one of these days.

Major Zellfritz : Madam, may I come in.
Anita Woverman : Sorry, major, it's verboten.

Anita Woverman : Oh, where did you get that beautiful bird?
Major Zellfritz : We get the bird from all the countries.
-
Major Zellfritz : A toast - to the new world order.
Anita Woverman : Down with it.
-
Anita Woverman : Oh, oh, mimosa. I, I'm allergic to mimosa.
Major Zellfritz : Oh, sheer medical nonsense. Exercise your will power. You will overcome it.
