- Sarah Crandall: I know, everything is getting rusty, including me.
- Ralph Burton: You ought to stay busy like I do.
- Sarah Crandall: [to a black man] I'm free, white, and twenty-one, and I'm going to do what I please.
- Ralph Burton: Anybody here? - Anybody here? - Hello! It's me! Ralph Burton! I'm alive! I'm Ralph Burton and I'm alive! - Hello? Hello? - Hey? - Anybody here?
- Ralph Burton: [singing] I don't like it, I don't like it, I don't like it here, I don't like, I don't like it, I don't like it, I don't like it here, You wouldn't like it, Nobody likes it, Nobody likes it here, Who's got moldy, I've got oldy, Who's got oldy, I got - Who's got moldy, I got oldy, Nobody likes it here, Voices echoin', Parts a fallin', I don't like it here...
- Ralph Burton: Hey, do you hear me? Hey, don't stop digging! I can't hear anybody digging! Hey, you didn't give up on me, did ya? I'm alive!
- Ralph Burton: [singing] Done laid around, Done stayed around, This ol' town too long, Summer's almost gone, Summer's almost gone, Done laid around, Done stayed around, This ol' town too long, And I feel like I want to travel on...
- Ralph Burton: [to a smiling mannequin] What's so funny? I'm lonely and you're laughing? Do you know what it means to be sick in your heart - from loneliness? You don't care do you? No sense, no feeling. You look at me but you don't see me. You don't see me and you wouldn't care if you did. Out you go my friend. We've been together too long. And you've laughed at me once too often!
- Ralph Burton: Hey girl? Hey lady! Where are you? That's great. That's all I need is to start seeing people. I did see you! You're real!
- Sarah Crandall: Don't touch me!
- Ralph Burton: That's good. That's very funny. We're probably the only two people left in the world and all you can say is don't touch me.
- Ralph Burton: I figured it out on my slide rule. In exactly twelve years, four months, and three weeks, the dishes will be up to here and I'll have to move.
- Sarah Crandall: Might be easier to wash them?
- Sarah Crandall: Ralph, wouldn't it be easier if I moved into this building? I mean instead of us going back and forth - and you trying to make both places run. It took you all month getting electricity into my place. If I were here...
- Ralph Burton: No.
- Sarah Crandall: Why not?
- Ralph Burton: People might talk.
- Ralph Burton: I can do things, I can make things work, But I can't put everything back the way it used to be.
- Sarah Crandall: [crying] We have to keep hoping, don't we?
- Ralph Burton: As long as we're alive, the world is still alive. We're monuments, you and me. And you're the best. A little damp right now, but, a very nice monument.
- Ralph Burton: Look, ah, where do I start with this?
- Sarah Crandall: Anywhere.
- Ralph Burton: Are you sure about this?
- Sarah Crandall: You know me well enough to be honest with me.
- Ralph Burton: Don't push me! I'll be so honest It'll burn ya!
- Ralph Burton: Now, for our entertainment! The first number's a song selected by Ralph Burton, featuring Ralph Burton as soloist, accompanied by Ralph Burton on the guitar, and applauded at the end by Ralph Burton personally - in case nobody else does.
