Quotes
-
Marshall Beck : Think of the money! Why they could be wealthier than us!
Carlotta Beck : That wouldn't take much, Marshall. I have already been forced to buy my hosiery in eggs!
[Carlotta hurls a L'eggs container at him]
-
George Wilhoit : Wild Bill, Bootsie, do you feel you're being treated well?
Bootsie Weschester : Oh goodness, yes! Everybody's just so considerate!
Wild Bill Weschester : Especially Carlotta. Why she drove all the way downtown to the society editor's desk to get Bootsie and me cut out of a family Christmas picture, cuz our faces were in a bad light.
Bootsie Weschester : She sure did! And she got out of a sickbed to do it too!
Carlotta Beck : Well, nothing's too good for my loved ones!
-
Carlotta Beck : Really, Marshall, I thought we had this settled years ago. I have absolutely no intention of having a baby. Just because I am a woman, it does not necessarily follow that I enjoy being around little people who spit up on me.
-
Kathleen Beck : I just came by to tell you that I saw Bootsie and Wild Bill heading to bed earlier, and they had that special gleam in their eye.
Carlotta Beck : Kathleen, this is hardly news. In case you haven't noticed, that "gleam" has been there as long as they have. I mean, we're talking about people who have a rabbit on their family crest!
-
Kathleen Beck : Why shouldn't I have a baby? I'm young and full of life! I have so much to give! Besides, it would be kind of fun to have a little person to cuddle up with.
Carlotta Beck : Why not? You've cuddled up with everything else.

[Marshall and Carlotta are trying to adopt a child]
Carlotta Beck : Naturally, Mrs. Camp, we have certain requirements of our own.
Mrs. Camp : I'd be very interested to know what those are.
Carlotta Beck : For example, we'd hope the child would at least come from a good broken home. The important thing is that we get the child as quickly as possible.
Mrs. Camp : Why?
Marshall Beck : Because we're in a race... Against the clock! Because, uh... we're getting old.
-
Mrs. Camp : What qualities in your son do you think would make him a good father?
Winona 'Mother B' Beck : Well, he's very good at meeting children on their own level.
Carlotta Beck : Isn't that nice?
Winona 'Mother B' Beck : He also has tantrums and still sleeps with a rubber sheet!
