Herb : [to Gil Godwyn while in the lifeboat] Listen to me, you sniveling little brown-nose. I have lived for 71 years, I've fought a war, I've buried my wife and I've survived 48 white sales at Gimble's. So if you think a little fop like you is gonna stop me, you've got another think coming!
Gil Godwyn : How DARE you speak to me like that!
Charlie : May I say something, sir?
Gil Godwyn : No you may NOT!
[Charlie blows an air horn in Gil's face]

Herb : Look at the size of this room! A good fart will give you a concussion!

[Herb and Charlie have successfully left the ship in the lifeboat]
Gil Godwyn : [furiously] I hope your boat capsizes and you drown like bloody rats!
[Ellen Carruthers walks in at this point]
Gil Godwyn : When that old bag makes me VP, I'll see to it you two never work on a cruise ship again as long as you LIVE!
[turns around, sees Ellen]
Gil Godwyn : [shocked, but tries to save face] Good evening, Ellen.

Gil Godwyn : We shall have to call the Guinness Book of Records about your friend Charlie.
Herb : What? Now what?
Gil Godwyn : Oh, he's taking the longest piss in freaking recorded history

Charlie : You see, instead of paying for the cruise, I signed us up as dance hosts. So the cruise is free.
Herb : What do you mean it's free, you idiot, we're WORKING here!
Charlie : We're not working. We're dancing and cavorting.
Herb : You moron. You don't even know how to dance!
Charlie : Well, that's why I brought you along.

Herb : I'll tell you the truth, Gil, I lost my wife not too long ago...
Gil Godwyn : Oh, good. Good! Tell it to the ladies. They eat it up.

Charlie Gordon : Why are you sterilizing your trousers?
Herb : [Annoyed] I'm *steaming* them.
Charlie Gordon : Oh, then what are you gonna' do, eat 'em with garlic butter?
Herb : It takes the wrinkles out, you imbecile!
Charlie Gordon : Huh! When a man is steaming his pants at midnight, it generally means there's a broad.
Herb : No broad!
Charlie Gordon : Well, that's too bad, 'cause I got one lined up: rich... "Texas rich." With an ass so beautiful, it's a shame she has to sit down on it.
Herb : Will you do me a favor and just knock that stuff off?
Charlie Gordon : Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot you were cooking.

Charlie : [Seeing Vivian entering the dance area] So... it's the broad that stole our airplane seats.
Herb : [Annoyed] That "broad" happens to have been an editor at Doubleday.
Charlie : Who cares?
Herb : All I was, was a clerk at Gimbel's.
Charlie : And Secretariat was just a horse. Go on, ask her to dance!
Herb : Oh, it's too late, Charlie.
Charlie : There's no such thing as "too late". That's why they invented death!

Leon the Pilot : [Last lines] $50 apiece for picking up the two studs!
Mavis : They ought to give you $50 apiece for CALLING them studs!
Charlie : Herb, lend me $50 will you? All I got is this check.
Herb : You're not getting' a nickel out of me, Charlie!
