Most scenes together: Sam Masterson & Martha Ivers (3), Sam Masterson & Toni Marachek (2)
Hotel clerk There's half as many baths as there is rooms. Half the rooms has a bath and half hasn't; that's one way of looking at it. Another is - for each two rooms one has a bath in the middle and the other hasn't - or - you might say - there's a half a bath to each of two rooms.
I know why you offered to tutor Martha. I know why you've made Walter do his daily lessons with her. I know why you want him to live here. A scholarship for Walter, that's why! But I'm not a foundation, Mr. O'Neil. I don't care if Walter drives a truck or goes to Harvard. Probably be a lot happier driving a truck.
The sun suit looks very well on her Sam, she's got just the figure for it. She's a very pretty girl.
I give another show at 8 o'clock.
In your room or here?
A sure thing is never a gamble.
No? What odds you give that that's a fact?
Why didn't you stop me, Sam? You know how much I hated her! Why didn't you stop me?
I wasn't there.
Why didn't you stop... [realizes] You weren't there?

Sailor What happened?
The road curved, I didn't.
That brings us up to my 21st birthday when I became a man officially.
How did it feel to become a man - officially?
I'd been there before.
Maybe you think I've been trying too hard to get acquainted.
Maybe you have.
Maybe you think that's wrong.
Maybe it's too soon to tell.
I wonder what you're thinking.
I don't think you'll take up too much room in my Stanley Steamer.
Maybe you're all right.
You know what probation is?
Sure! A knife stickin' in your back!
Walter O'Neil I wasn't going to shoot.
I wasn't gonna wait and see.
I'll loan you a book for a couple of cigarettes if you don't mind what kind of book it is.
Go ahead and hit me, Sam. I've got it coming.
I missed a bus once and I was lucky. I wanted to see if I could be lucky twice.
Look! I don't like to get pushed around. I don't like people I like to be pushed around. I don't like anybody to get pushed around.
