— (James Stewart)

9 Have you ever been hit on the head with a high heel? -No, and I won't! -That's what you think!

— (Carole Lombard)

10 You've got green eyes... cat eyes! And you're stubborn and bad-tempered! And what's more, you're ungrateful! -Ohhhh, he loves me.

— (James Stewart), (Carole Lombard)
