Howard Carroll : Well, vending machines are a big business.
Ed Hoffman : Oh, big business, yes, very big.
W.J. Archer : Well, I'm interested in the beverage end of it. They have machines dispensing nearly every kind of beverage, but there's one they overlooked.

Agnes Carroll : How do you feel about Virginia running foot races?
Tommy Green : I don't think she should do it.
Ginger Carroll : You mean I shouldn't compete against Eddie?
Tommy Green : Sure you should, but as a girl, not as a boy.
Ginger Carroll : Well, then you don't think of me as an equal?
Tommy Green : Sure I do, but I think of you as a girl first.
Ginger Carroll : Well, I want to be an equal first!
[storms away angry]
Tommy Green : Go ahead! I don't want to talk about it any more!
Howard Carroll : Well, Virginia seems to have discovered a new sex: boys, girls, and equals.
