Quotes
-
Ronnie : Speaking of making love...
Pierre Mirande : Was I speaking of it?
Ronnie : I mean, you Frenchmen are supposed to know a lot about love-making. Perhaps you could tip me off to something. I'm not getting the breaks that I should get.
Pierre Mirande : Oh, you are not?
Ronnie : No. I'm a good-looking fellow, don't you think?
Pierre Mirande : Yes, true.
Ronnie : I pull my line on 'em. Get everything all set. It's all perfectly setup. And then I get the fruit.
Pierre Mirande : You get the fruit?
Ronnie : The raspberry! The horse laugh!
Pierre Mirande : What horse laughs?
Ronnie : I mean... oh, nevermind! What I wanna know is what you do when you go out with a girl.
Pierre Mirande : Tell me what you do now.
Ronnie : Well, I sort of put my arm around her, say 'how 'bout a little kiss, baby?' Maybe I don't even ask for it. And I usually say, 'you're hot stuff, me for you. How 'bout goin' places and doin' things?'
Pierre Mirande : Yeah? And, uh, and then?
Ronnie : Then they usually give you the air!
Pierre Mirande : Huh. And you call that making love? Huh! Poor American girls...
