Quotes 

• Eddie Sirota : Last week you almost got us pulverized in that car.

  Gene Krupa : So, that was last week. And almost doesn't count. What's the matter? You want to live forever?

  Eddie Sirota : Nope. Just as long as I can.

• Gene Krupa : Who'd you meet in the lobby?

  Eddie Sirota : Davey Tough. Remember?

  Gene Krupa : Yeah, sure. I remember.

  Eddie Sirota : He said to say hello and how come we didn't make it to D.D.'s some night.

  Gene Krupa : All right, I'll bite. What's a D.D.?

  Eddie Sirota : Oh, I don't know, a session at Dorissa Dinell's place, "The Lady D". That's were all the big guys drop in after hours. Dorsey, Teagarden, Red Nichols.

  Gene Krupa : Dorsey! Teagarden! Red Nichols! Did you get the address?

  Eddie Sirota : Yeah.

  Gene Krupa : Then what are you waiting for? Come on. Let's go!

• Eddie Sirota : Not big. Bigger. Everything's got to be bigger for you. Bigger. Bigger than that until something happens.

• Eddie Sirota : It's good to see your ugly puss again.

• Eddie Sirota : Gene, you gotta come down. The way you're going, you're going to wind up in a hospital.

  Gene Krupa : It's the only way to go - if you're gonna go at all. Big!
