Miriam: I remember when we first met. I gave the most awful performance in Way of The World. I went to my dressing room and there were the beautiful flowers you'd sent me. And then you walked in. Pierce: Flowers? Miriam: Dozens of them. They were wonderful. Pierce: I didn't send any. Must have been someone else. I walked in and you thanked me. Miriam: You're teasing me. Pierce: Bloody waste of good money, flowers. Miriam: You didn't? Pierce: No. Miriam: Really? Pierce: I had them at a good price. I robbed a grave. Miriam: All you ever think about is money. Pierce: All anyone ever thinks about is money.

Dan Packard: How'd you like to be a Cabinet member's wife? Mingle with all the other Cabinet members' wives and the Ambassadors. Kitty: Nertz! You're not going to drag me down to that graveyard. I seen their pictures in the papers, those girlies. A lot of sour-faced frumps with last year's clothes on. Pinning medals on girl scouts and pouring tea for the DARs and rolling Easter eggs on the White House lawn. A swell lot of fun I'd have. You go live in Washington! I can have a good time right here.
