• Miles Webber : [Rose is embarrassed that Miles's college colleauges saw the racy photograph she gave him for his birthday]  Let me tell you something: Back when I was in the Army, inside my locker I kept a picture of Betty Grable, and she was wearing a lot less than you were wearing in my birthday photo. Sweetheart, she was the darling of America.

  Rose Nylund : Miles, she was in her twenties, and she had the most beautiful legs on the planet.

  Miles Webber : [intimately]  Ah... the *second* most beautiful.

  Rose Nylund : [flattered]  Oh, Miles.

  Miles Webber : Rita Hayworth had a set of gams on her, boy... Well, no, look, Sweetheart, about the age thing. Something I read someplace I've always believed. Y'know, when you're... when you're young and beautiful, it's an accident of nature. But when you're beautiful older, you've earned it. That you created yourself.

• Blanche Devereaux : [trying to help Rose find a good birthday present for Miles]  Oh, I know. You can give Miles one of those boudoir photographs. You know, where you pose for pictures in sexy lingerie.

  Rose Nylund : Oh, I don't know. I'd feel cheap... Like... Well, like you.

  Blanche Devereaux : Oh, Rose, come on. It's a great idea. The pictures are just an intimate way to let a fella know he's the one and only man in your life. I've done it, twenty, thirty times.

  Rose Nylund : [Dorothy and Sophia come into the living room]  Oh, Dorothy, how would you feel about a birthday present of a picture of me in sexy lingerie?

  Dorothy Petrillo Zbornak : I'd rather have the cash.

  Rose Nylund : Actually, it's not for you, it's for Miles.

  Dorothy Petrillo Zbornak : He'd rather have the cash.
