- Marian Hardy: Did you ever speak ten words to a cute number without hinting that she was the most beautiful girl in the world?
- Andy Hardy: Marian, I always start off conservative like that and then I work up. That system's been the secret of my success.
- Marian Hardy: Keep on using that system and you'll find yourself where a lot of fellas do.
- Andy Hardy: Where's that?
- Marian Hardy: Engaged to marry a girl without even having to mention the subject.
- Andy Hardy: Oh my gosh! Don't women ever know when you're kiddin'?
- Marian Hardy: Not when they're told they're beautiful by anything wearing pants.
- Andy Hardy: Women are worse than I thought.
- Marian Hardy: People don't like people just because they're perfect. The girls seem to like you and heaven knows you're no rose geranium.
- Mrs. Hardy: Your father's late tonight. You know, he's been acting strange lately. I hope he's not going to have a nervous breakdown.
- Judge Hardy: Well what's the matter with you son? I thought I was being pretty generous. After all, we owe the world something.
- Andy Hardy: Yeah but... do you think the world deserves it?
- Marian Hardy: You can always handle Polly.
- Andy Hardy: I used to think so but overconfidence ruined me.
- Andy Hardy: Sheila, how about a little huddle tonight?
- Sheila Brooks: Oh you mean a giraffe party?
- Andy Hardy: Giraffe?
- Sheila Brooks: Well a giraffe has a long neck.
