- Ralph: [after an argument with Alice on being young] She's right, Norton. She's right. There's nothing wrong with somebody wanting to stay young. It's my fault. Well, I'm telling you right now, Norton, I'm changing.
- Ed Norton: What are you gonna do?
- Ralph: I'm gonna start taking her to dances and roller-skating. I'm gonna learn all the new dances: the Big Apple, Suzie Q, the Continental, Hesitation Waltz, all of that. And I'm gonna learn all the expressions, too, like "Bo-do-dee-oh-do", "23 skidoo", and "I'll kiss you later, I'm eating a potato", all that stuff, I'm gonna learn.
- [Norton laughs]
- Ralph: What's so funny?
- Ed Norton: Bo-dee-do-do, 23 skidoo, I'll kiss you later, I'm eating a potato!
- [laughs again]
- Ralph: What's wrong with those expressions?
- Ed Norton: Boy, oh, boy, how can anyone so round be so square?
- [Ralph is surprised to learn that Alice wants to go roller-skating and he doesn't exactly like that idea]
- Ralph: Let's face it, Alice, we've been out of the age range of roller-skating since Alf Landon stopped being presidential timber.
- Judy: ...a real termite!... strictly out of the wood!
- Ralph: Acting young ain't what keeps you young, but if you have some memories - some good memories - of when you were young, that's what keeps you young.
