Quotes
Tom Verney:
You're a beautiful brain and beautiful clothes. No temperature, no pulse. That's all.
A.M. MacGregor:
Where did you learn about women, Verney?
Tom Verney:
It isn't a matter of learning. It's instinct.
A.M. MacGregor:
I'm a brain with no pulse, eh? I'm a woman, Verney, more woman than you'll ever...
