[about Gertie Cummings]

I wanted to marry her when I saw the moonlight shining on the barrel of her father's shotgun.

[to Ali, cocking his gun]

That's enough. In this country that better be a proposal of marriage.

Jud Fry
[to Laurey]

I'm a hired hand. I got dirt on my hands. Pig slime. I ain't fit to touch you, am I - you're better. Oh, you're so much better! Well we'll see how much better you are, Miss Laurey, and then you won't be so free and easy and hifalutin' with your airs! You such a FINE lady!

He called me his Persian kitten!

What'd you call her that for?

Ali

Ohh - I don't remember...

I do! He said I's like a Persian kitten cause they is the cats with the soft round tails!

Sometimes there seems like times that men ain't got no need for women.

Girl

There's sometimes women ain't got no need for men.

Yeah, but who wants to be dead?

Ali

It's a wonderful thing to be married. I got a brother in Persia got six wives.

Six wives all at once?

Why, sure. That's the way they do in them countries.

Ali

Not always; I got a brother in Persia only got one wife. He's a bachelor.

Ali

You'd hardly ever see your daughter no more!

That'd be all right. Just take care of her, son.

Laurey

Curly! You're sittin' on the stove!

Yeouch!

[Jumps up, feels the stove]

Cold as a hunk of ice.

Laurey

Wish it would've burned a hole in your pants.

I don't know what to make of you! You're too purty to be a skunk! Too thin to be a snake! Too little to be a man, and too big to be a mouse! I reckon you're a rat!

Ali

That's logical.
