Marnie Edgar:
You don't love me. I'm just something you've caught! You think I'm some sort of animal you've trapped!
Mark Rutland:
That's right - you are. And I've caught something really wild this time, haven't I? I've tracked you and caught you and by God I'm going to keep you.
Mark Rutland:
Atlantic City opens for races at the end of the month. We could drive out there next Saturday...
Marnie Edgar:
All right. Are you fond of horses?
Mark Rutland:
No, not at all.
Mark Rutland:
Well why didn't you jump over the side?
Marnie Edgar:
The idea was to kill myself, not feed the damn fish.
Lil Mainwaring:
How do you take your tea, Miss Taylor?
Marnie Edgar:
Usually with a cup of hot water and a tea bag.
Mark Rutland:
Before I was drafted into Rutland's Miss Taylor, I had notions of being a zoologist. I still try to keep up with my field.
Marnie Edgar:
Zoos?
Mark Rutland:
Instinctual behavior.
Marnie Edgar:
A lady's instinct too?
Mark Rutland:
But I do want to go to bed, Marnie. I very much want to go to bed.
Marnie Edgar:
Are you still in the mood for killing?
Marnie Edgar:
I don't believe in luck.
Mark Rutland:
What do you believe in?
Marnie Edgar:
Nothing.
Mark Rutland:
You're very sexy with your face clean.
Marnie Edgar:
Why don't you love me, Mama?
Marnie Edgar:
Can't you understand? Isn't it plain enough? I cannot bear to be handled.
Mark Rutland:
By anybody? Or just me?
Marnie Edgar:
You... Men!
Mark Rutland:
Really? You didn't seem to mind at my office that day, or at the stables. And all this last week i've handled you.
Marnie Edgar:
You Freud, me Jane?
Mark Rutland:
Did you have a tough childhood, Miss Taylor?
Marnie Edgar:
Not particularly.
Mark Rutland:
I think you did. I think you've had a hard, tough climb.
Mr. Rutland:
The best thing for the inside of a man or a woman is the outside of a horse.
Lil Mainwaring:
I'm queer for liars.
Mark Rutland:
I'm fighting a powerful impulse to beat the hell out of you.
Mark Rutland:
Here we are old bean, the homestead.
Marnie Edgar:
How did you find me?
Mark Rutland:
You're here to answer the questions old girl.
Mark Rutland:
When we get home, I'll explain that we had a lover's quarrel... That you ran away... That I went after you and brought you back. That'll please Dad. He admires action. Then I'll explain that we' re gonna be married before the week is out... That I can't bear to have you out of my sight. He also admires wholesome animal lust.
