White Christmas (1954 film) 
“My dear partner, wen what’s left of you gets around to what’s left to be gotten, what’s left to be gotten won’t be worth getting, whatever it is you’ve got left.”
“Pushing, pushing...”
“What is this, the best two out of three?”
“We’re practically strangers.”
“When I figure out what that means I’ll come up with a crushing reply.”
“____, if you’re ever under a falling building, and somebody runs up and offers to pick you up and carry you to safety, don’t think, don’t pause, don’t hesitate for a moment, just spit in his eye.”
“That’s ridiculous, even if it made any sense at all.”
“I think it’s impossible, ridiculous, and insane! And I wish I’d thought of it first.”
“How do you do?”
“Don’t just stand there -- how do I get off?”
“You ought to be horsewhipped. First you, and then you, and then you again.”
“Please, don’t quote me the price when I haven’t got the time.”
“Well, it’s not good, but it’s a reason.”
“Mutual, I’m sure.”
“Oh, that’s very funny. Ho, ho, ho.”
“I’m not the marrying kind. I’m not the engaging kind, either!”
“We ate, and then he ate. We slept, and then he slept.”
“Are things really that bad?”
“Troops ready for inspection, sir!”
“Oh, no. You wouldn’t do this to me...”
“I don’t know what you see in this long drink of charged water but honestly, after you get to know him, he’s almost endurable.”
“It’s probably just a small internal muscular hemorrhage, sir.”
“Well, you’re not exactly Superman, but you’re awfully available.”
“That’s right, idea. That’s exactly the word we used, too: ideal. We looked at this big ski lodge and we said ‘Isn’t it ideal, absolutely ideal,’ didn’t we.”
“That’s not the way back to headquarters.”
“Wouldn’t do what?”
“Don’t you think we ought to...kiss or something?”
“Looks like it’s absolutely necessary.”
“I’ve got a feeling I’m not gonna like it...”
“Let’s just say we’re doing it for an old pal in the army.”
“Look who’s talking about guilt!”
“I want you to get married. I want you to have nine children. And if you only spend five minutes a day with each kid, that’s forty-five minutes, and I’d at least have time to go out and get a massage or something.”
“Let’s face it, ____, you’re a lonely, miserable man.”
“She’s always felt that she’s mother hen and I’m her little chick. She’ll never leave the roost until I’m taken care of.”
“____, you know that, and I know that, but ____ doesn’t know that. At least he won’t for about an hour and a half.”
“I just dropped by to thank you for saving my life.”
“I guess I’ve always been a silly school girl...you know the bit, the lady fair and the knight on the white horse.”
“Well, it was a life worth saving.”
“What’d you have for lunch today?”
“Well, break your arm, or your ankle, or your neck, but don’t break anything valuable, huh?”
“We’ve established that the lodge is ideal.”
“Well, then you’re happy for the wrong reasons, and that’s the same as being lonely and miserable, except it’s worse.”
“You know, in some ways, you’re far superior to my cocker spaniel.”
“Oh, my word, if I wasn’t such a mean old biddy, I’d break right down and cry.”
“Vermont should be beautiful this time of year: all that snow.”
“Let me tell you something, it’s kinda dangerous, putting those knights up on white horses. Likely to slip off, you know.”
“Well, I guess that’s the end of that.”
“It sounds very... Vermonty!”
“Why is everybody so concerned about my eating habits? Why don’t people just leave me alone?”
“I’ve got a feeling you’re gonna hate it.”
“How much is ‘wow’?”
“Last night, she couldn’t sleep. Today, she won’t eat... she’s in love.”
“Since you saved my life, you decided you have a right to run it.”
“It’s right between ‘ouch’ and ‘boing.’“
“Well, I like that! Without so much as a ‘kiss my foot’ or ‘have an apple!’”
“We like to take care of our friends.”
“I’m more of the ‘I don’t mind pushing my best friend into it but I’m scared stiff when I get anywhere to close to it myself’ kind.”
“Is that bad?”
“It’s always that she’s been kind of a mother hen.”
“We wanted the mother hen to leave the roost so that the little chick could... oh, I guess we laid an egg.”
