• (Warren William) "You're finally awake, Susie. You see ahead of you a new world. A world full of unexpected joys."

• (Marian Marsh) "I don't understand?"
• (Frederick Kerr) "Of course you don't. That's what's so delightful about you, Susie. You're like a clean white page but which no one has written a line. And the first inscription should be; a beautiful poem."

• (Olive 'Ollie' Frey) "You're just a well oiled and regulated machine. You'll probably marry another machine and have a flock of little typewriters."

• (Marian Marsh) "I'm not satisfied to sneak into a man's arms and be kissed just because I happen to be there. That's too easy for him. I want a man to climb mountains to get me. I want him to pass by all the other woman and kick down the door, just to kiss me."
• (Warren William) "Susie, you're wonderful."
• (Marian Marsh) "When I love a man, he must ache and long and burn for me. He must be hungry and thirsty forever, unless I came along. I, Susie Sachs. No other woman on earth must do. That's the sort of love I want."

• (Olive 'Ollie' Frey) "Since you're tossing around bouquets, I'll hand you one. You're a very pretty girl yourself. Quite a decent figure. Really, a sweet little shape. But, it's no use to you. You don't know what to do with it."
• (Marian Marsh) "What do you mean by that?"
• (Olive 'Ollie' Frey) "I mean you don't know how to make men realize you have "it". Your one ambition is to be a perfect machine. But, you've never learned how to be a woman."
