- George Burns: I've been trying to make a call for the last hour and somebody is using our telephone.
- Gracie Allen: Oh, it's Blanche.
- George Burns: I'm gonna lose my temper, hasn't she got one of her own?
- Gracie Allen: Oh yeah, she has a very bad temper, so don't say anything to upset her or she'll never get off the phone.
- George Burns: If Gracie thinks that I believe the barbecue is gonna be at the Vanderlips', she must think I'm a bigger sap than I ever thought she thinks I am.
- George Burns: My hobby is singing - I love to sing! Now there's a hobby that gives me a lot of pleasure. And it costs me nothing but all of my friends.
- Harry von Zell: I never heard George talk like that before - why, nothing he said made any sense! Haven't you noticed it?
- Gracie Allen: I hadn't noticed a thing, he seems just as normal as I am.
