- Jake Berman: Oh come on, babe, what's the matter?
- Sally Ross: What's the matter? I've got a show to do in five days, the lighting man appears to be learning on the set, my secretary has been attacked, David is dead, and oh yes, there is some fruit cake out there who wants to kill me. Now to satisfy you more, will you please get the hell out of here!
- Sally Ross: Look, how long have we been together?
- Belle Goldman: Seven years. I must be a masochist.
- Sally Ross: And I'm a spoiled bitch.
- Belle Goldman: One of the greatest.
- Belle Goldman: I had three chocolates.
- Sally Ross: I've had three drinks. Maybe we should turn ourselves in.
- Sally Ross: How's, uh, Little Red Riding Hood? She come with you?
- Jake Berman: She's shopping this afternoon.
- Sally Ross: You know, as long as you're in California and just on my mind, you are on my mind a lot, it's okay. Okay that we threw 15 years down the drain. Okay that you're running around with a girl young enough to be our daughter. Okay that I'm alone. It's the way it worked out. But now you're here and - she's here.
- Jake Berman: I don't want to be alone.
- Belle Goldman: Thanks to you, the whole world hates me.
- Sally Ross: Thanks to you, the whole world loves me.
- Sally Ross: Can you believe they've choreographed a dance for me to do in bed? Now they're arguing about whether I ought to do it in pajamas or a nightgown.
- Sally Ross: What are you doing tonight?
- Belle Goldman: I'm doing steamed vegetables, the laundry, and the late show. One of your old movies is on. That ought to put me to sleep.
- Sally Ross: Who ever told you that life was supposed to be uninterrupted bliss?
- Belle Goldman: What is this bliss shit?
- Sally Ross: I hope you haven't taken to treating all my fans like this.
- Belle Goldman: All your fans aren't trying to screw you. I told you he was a weirdo.
- Jake Berman: If you'd of called I would have come over and...
- Sally Ross: Oh, sure you would've. You'd comfort me, hold me, make me laugh, make me think I could take it, made me think I could take anything. Then you'd look at your watch and go meet Heidi for dinner. That's not a relationship. That's the Red Cross.
- Sally Ross: Tell me, um, what's your first name?
- Raphael Andrews: Raphael.
- Sally Ross: Do you come from a family of painters or a family of angels?
- Raphael Andrews: [chuckles] No, my father was a mailman in Queens.
- Sally Ross: The problem between you and me is that everything's lopsided and I don't want to depend on you anymore. It always makes me feel shitty about myself. I want to give, too, not just take. So now will you please get the hell out of here?
- Sally Ross: [singing] Wanted hearts, Not diamonds, Had enough champagne, I don't care if I go, 'Round the world again...
- Sally Ross: I've always had a thing for men who deliver their flowers in person.
- Jake Berman: And I've always had a thing for half naked actresses.
- Jake Berman: How many times do you suppose we've walked this beach together? Remember the summer we unplugged the phone?
- Sally Ross: Tried to kill each other at Scrabble, drank gin fizzes, slept on the sand. We were something, weren't we?
