Quote context

[...]

- The wife and I scrimped for over four years to take a trip to Hawaii. You know, palm trees, sunshine, sand, things we ain't got at home.

- We dreamed of the day that we were to leave.

- So, the wife persuades a woman to take care of our children for 10 dollars a day, which is more than I made the first five years we were married.

- We got all unpacked and were really living, but the ship don't sail. Strike or something.

- But all right, we're lucky. We get the last two tickets on an airplane, and although we can't take all our luggage, we're in the land of our dreams.

- At the little hotel that fits our budget, there's a mix-up in the reservations.

- Another couple named Joseph from Milwaukee.

- So we figure maybe they've had a dream, too. So we don't start any arguments.

- We finally wind up at a hotel which is way beyond our budget. So we have to cut our trip short.

- Okay? Comes evening, the wife gets into the one evening dress she could bring along, and I get into a tux I haven't had on in ten years.

Top rated lines from this movie

I got news for you guys. We just passed the point of no return.
Fella, you have never lived until you've been chased around the palm tree by that guy's wife.
Do like she says or no life vest is gonna keep you from drowning because I'm gonna hold your head under till you stop wigglin'!
I've heard about you for years and I'm sick of the sound your name!
Funny thing how a fella can sleep with four big engines hollering in his ears, only wake up when they stop hollering. Imagine silence waking you up at home?
