Quote context

[...]

- Well, I mean since they were good and they're still good, they'd have to be good.

- And then it wouldn't make so much difference...

- It wouldn't make any difference -Oh, any difference if I hadn't won the contest!

- Of course it would make a difference!

Top rated lines from this movie

And while I'm on the subject, I just want to tell you that of all the groups of fat heads, that I've ever had the misfortune to gaze upon, you take the log pail.

But since we do everything here in a highly non-commercial basis, I merely take pleasure in giving you this small check written out with my heart's blood! And that's all there is too it, here.
Is it good luck or bad luck when a black cat crosses your path? -Miss, I always say that depends on what happens afterwards.
Contests! What good are contests anyway? Why they make you a million enemies. And all they prove is you've got too much money in the first place.
