Don Lockwood:
"What's your lofty mission in life that lets you sneer at my humble profession?"
Kathy Selden:
"Well, I'm a-I'm an actress!..."
Don Lockwood:
"Oh... "
Kathy:
"...on the stage!"
Don Lockwood:
"Oh, on the stage, well I'd like to see you act, what are you in right now? I could brush up on my English, or bring along an interpreter, that is if they'd let in a *movie* actor."
Kathy Selden:
"I'm not in a play right now, but I will be. I'm going to New York..."
Don Lockwood:
"Ohhh, you're going to New York and then some day we'll all hear of you, won't we? Kathy Selden- as Juliet, as Lady Macbeth, as King Lear. You'll have to wear a beard for that one of course."
Kathy Selden:
"Laugh all you want, but at least the stage is a dignified profession."
Don Lockwood:
[scoffing] "Dignified!"
Kathy:
"What do you have to be so conceited about? You're nothing but a shadow on film... just a shadow. You're not flesh and blood."
Don Lockwood:
"Oh, no? :
[moves amorously towards her]
Kathy:
"Stop!"
Don Lockwood:
"What can I do to you, I'm only a shadow."
Kathy:
"You keep away from me! Just because you're a big movie star, wild parties, swimming pools, you expect every girl to fall in a dead faint at your feet. Well, don't you touch me!"
Don Lockwood:
[chanting] "Fear not, sweet lady! I will not molest you. I am but a humble jester, and you? Yooouuu are to far above me!"
[he gets out of the car and closes the door on his coat tails]
Don Lockwood:
"Farewell, Ethel Barrymore! I must *tear* myself from your side!"
[Don tears his coat. Kathy guffaws as Don walks away]
