Tommy Max: My wife is going to have a baby.
Walt Price: Oh, good, let's bring more people into this overcrowded world.

Ann Black: It's for your finger.
Joseph Turner White: What's an associate producer credit?
Bill Smith: It's what you give to your secretary instead of a raise.
Walt Price: Would you like a cigar?
Mayor George Bailey: Aren't these illegal?

Mayor George Bailey: Well, the trade embargo with Cuba.

Bob Barrenger: Only second chance I know, is the chance to make the same mistake twice.
