And don't think you're frightening me. I've heard all about you, you antediluvian tyrant! Yeah, you don't impress me. I don't see anything so terrifying about you.

Quote context

[...]

- Twelve o'clock and Cinderella's lost her slipper.

- Just what is the meaning of this scene?

- I thought I made that clear. I'm looking for Sarah Brown, or Cherry Chester, or whatever she happens to be calling herself today.

- She's not here!

- She isn't? Well, I'll look for her myself.

- Get out of this house! Get out or I'll have you arrested!

- Now, now, I won't.

- And don't think you're frightening me. I've heard all about you, you antediluvian tyrant! Yeah, you don't impress me. I don't see anything so terrifying about you.

- Well, what do you want?

- What do I want? Do you see this slipper? I want the foot that goes in it.

- Do you see this marriage certificate? It's a claim check on a girl! A girl about five feet two, red hair, green eyes, face covered with freckles.

- Ohhhh. So you're Sam Smith?

- Yeah, yeah. Don't hold that against me.

Top rated lines from this movie

Your type of woman bores me! Give me the simple primitive woman, the woman of long silences...!

Marriage should be like a ski jump. Sudden, swift, reckless. Starting on the heights, leaping into the void, never knowing the end, never caring! Breathless, defiant, exhilarating!

Oh. Oh, well, I never go to pictures. Those marshmallow-faced movie stars make me sick. -Yes, sir.

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

No, no. Marriage is the monkey wrench women throw into the machinery of love. Now, without it, there'd be no past to bother you, no future to worry about, nothing but the present.
