Thelma Todd: Thelma Todd

Quotes 

• Thelma Todd : Prepare to die! No, you're not worthy of dying. No, you insignificant little worm, you; you snake in sheep's clothing, you miserable little cur, you! Oh, you, a poet!

  [laughs] 

• Thelma Todd : Isn't there any place I can go in this world without you finding me? Finding me? Finding me?

• Thelma Todd : Oh! There's that man again! Oh, no. It's only my nerves. Oh.

  Mickey : Don't you worry, little girl. If that guy comes back in here again, I'll tear him limb from limb.

  Thelma Todd : Oh, thank you, Mr... . um, Mr... . uh...

  Mickey : Daniels; Mickey for short.

  Thelma Todd : Oh, Mr. Mickey for short, you have such a winning personality.

• Thelma Todd : Oh, you wouldn't mind taking little Fido out for a walk, would you?

  Mickey : All right, Miss... uh...

  Thelma Todd : Todd; Thelma Todd.

• Dave : It's all right, lady. I'm here. I'll protect you. Oh, you're wonderful. I've often dreamed about a girl like you.

  Thelma Todd : [pinches Alabam's cheek]  Oh, you cute, dear boy.

• Mickey : It's all right lady, he's gone.

  Thelma Todd : Who's gone?

  Mickey : The fellow that tried to kill you.

• Mickey : Yoo-hoo! Hottie!

  Thelma Todd : What do you mean, Hot Toddy?

• Thelma Todd : I'm trying to patch up some puppy love affairs here in the apartment house.

• Thelma Todd : Do you love me enough to go away with me?

  Mickey : Where do you want to go?

  Thelma Todd : Oh, China, Morocco, India, anywhere!

  Mickey : This is kinda sudden. I'll have to ask Ma.

  Thelma Todd : Oh, I know it's sudden, but if my husband finds out, he'll kill us both off!

  Mickey : Husband?

• Dave : Gee, you're wonderful.

  Thelma Todd : What? Did your girl throw you over too?

  Dave : Yes, like a dirty dog.

  Thelma Todd : Tell me about her.

  Dave : Well, she's a little runt. She's got a pug nose, kinda squatty, and her family - oh! Her father's a garbage collector.

• Thelma Todd : Well, girls, what can I do for you?

  Gertie : Well, what's the idea of you vamping our boyfriends?

  Thelma Todd : Well, I didn't make love to them. They made love to me.

  Gertie : Yes, but, you encouraged them.

  Thelma Todd : Well, why not?

• Thelma Todd : Oh, so that's it. You're a Don Juan, a trifler!

• Thelma Todd : Come here, Romeo. Your roaming days are over!

• Thelma Todd : Come on. Get up outta there. You're not dead yet.

• Thelma Todd : [after listening to Alabam's poem]  That's wonderful; the depths of it. Sounds like Rockfellow.

  Alabam : You mean, uh, Longfellow.

  Thelma Todd : [laughing]  Oh, ho, ho, ho. Longfellow. I always get my poets mixed up.

• Thelma Todd : Don't come near me. No! Help! Help! Don't kill me! No, don't kill me, please. Please! No, don't come in. Don't kill me! No, no, no. Don't kill me! Oh.
