Quotes 

• Simone : It's so grand to see them. They're really in love.

  Nana : Love. Real love. Nice and sweet and sticky, right off a valentine.

  Simone : Oh, but, Nana, love is *so* good.

  Nana : You can have it.

  Mado : Well, I'll take it anytime. I can't seem to find it. Real love - with a millionaire. Just never seems to come my way. The more I give, the less I get.

  Nana : Reverse it. The less you give, the more you get. I know.

  Mado : Is that your technique, Nana?

  Nana : I give nothing, I say nothing. I let them rave and I don't even listen. That makes me a glamorous mystery. Try it sometime. It's very practical.

• Pantomimic Teacher : Creep then, don't dance. Think, Simone!

  Simone : It's pretty hard with a book on your head.

• Nana : We're going to have a party. Georges Mounier's invited us for dinner at Armenonville.

  Mado : Georges Mounier, the jeweler? Is he the new one Nana?

  Nana : This week, it's Mounier.

  Simone : What about next week?

  Nana : I'm no prophet.

• Simone : Make way! Make way for Venus rising from the waves.

  Mado : Venus. Get it? That's just a cue so that she can talk about her legs again.

  Simone : Why not? There's only one other leg like this in all Paris.

  Mado , Yvonne : And that's this.

  Mado : Well if mine weren't any better, I'd sell 'em for sausages.

• Simone : Did you see that kiss?

  Mado : Kiss? That's not a kiss, that's a honeymoon.
