Lt. Col. Morris Langdon
- [about Lt. Colonel Langdon's wife]
- Leonora: Cutting off her nipples with a pair of garden shears. You call that normal? My God! Garden shears!
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: No, but she's not, you know - Doctor says she's neurotic.
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: [after Alison Langdon's houseboy Anacleto falls down the stairs] I wish you'd broken your damn neck.
- Maj. Weldon Penderton: Any fulfillment obtained at the expense of normality is wrong and should not be allowed to bring happiness. In short, it's, uh, it's better because it's, uh, morally honorable for the square peg to keep scrapin' about in a round hole rather than to discover and use the unorthodox one that would fit it.
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: Well, yeah, that's, that's right, Weldon.
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: She hasn't tried to do it again.
- Leonora: How could she? What she did is something a lady can only do once now, isn't it?
- Leonora: Do you think she has any idea about us?
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: No, no.
- Leonora: Well, I hope not. I like Alison.
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: It is a pretty awful thing to see a grownup man dancin' around on his toes to some kind of silly music and paintin' all kind of funny-lookin' pictures with watercolors.
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: Why don't you come ridin' with us tomorrow?
- Maj. Weldon Penderton: Well, we'll see.
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: Do you good. Shake up your liver.
- Leonora: Why don't you give them to Weincheck, all these records? He'd be happy to have 'em.
- Lt. Col. Morris Langdon: Oh, I think I'll keep 'em over in my room. I might wanna play 'em sometime.
- Leonora: Oh, now, Morris, you know you *hate* classical records. Don't talk like that. It's - well, it's morbid!
