• Joan Wilder : My heart just isn't in it. I mean, romance just doesn't seem real to me anymore.

  Gloria : Real? You don't write real - you write about people that sail off into the god damn sunset.

  Joan Wilder : Well, what about the next day, when the sun comes up?

  Gloria : There is no next day! That's why it's a romance. You've got to stop confusing real life with a romantic novel!

• Gloria : Literary functions are not exactly Jack's speed. I mean, the guy's favorite author is the man who wrote "Pull tab to open".
