Jake Green: Why, that trampy little.
Trocadero Stage Assistant: I'll go get her, boss.
Jake Green: No. Let her go! The dirty worthless.
Magnolia: He's a no account river rat who's been botherin' Julie and she'd have nothing to do with him! He's mean and he's ugly!
Gaylord Ravenal: Why do you want to be an actress?
Magnolia: Why? Well, I mean, well, the ordinary person wouldn't understand. I mean, that is, a person outside the profession.
Gaylord Ravenal: No? Well, you want to be an actress because it makes everything become true - every exciting thing you ever heard about, even if its make believe. Isn't that it?
Magnolia: Yes, that is it. How did you know?
Gaylord Ravenal: For instance, right now, you'd like to be Romeo and Juliet.
Julie: Will that do, Simon Legree?
Jake Green: Fine, Julie. Now let's see the costume for the finale, huh?
Julie: Yes, massah.
Jake Green: Attagirl.
Julie: Yes, massah.
Jake Green: That's right.
Julie: Yes, massah.
Cap'n Andy Hawks: Roll the wheel, Windy!
Julie: River dandies are thick as locusts, angel.
Julie: Pride is smaller than kindness.
Cap'n Andy Hawks: I guess you cut quite a figure before the footlights.
Julie: Down on the levee, the gals put a little shuffle in it.
Gaylord Ravenal: Captain and Mrs. Hawks, allow me. Ravenal. Gaylord Revenal, of the Tennessee Ravenals.
Magnolia: How are your others?
Gaylord Ravenal: Huh? What's that, honey?
Magnolia: Your other bets! Yesterday's and last night's and all those one last round before we break it up bets! Were they just as good?
Cap'n Andy Hawks: You've met my wife, I believe.
Gaylord Ravenal: A repeated pleasure, Mrs. Hawks.
Cap'n Andy Hawks: And my daughter, Magnolia.
Gaylord Ravenal: Only in make believe.
Julie: Give me a neat rye.
Riverboat Bartender: Yes.
Julie: That's to get my courage up.
Julie: That rattlebrain mule.
Jake Green: Go hurry her nibs with that costume, will you, Joe?
Parthy: It's perfectly plain to me what's happening onboard this boat. And I'll not have my daughter mixed up with any hussy!
New Year's Eve Cutie: You wear the trousers, eh, buster?
Cap'n Andy Hawks: I wouldn't look good in skirts, would I?
Julie: Ride the river, Joe.
Joe: Miss Julie.
Julie: Keep ridin' the ol' river, Joe boy.
Julie: Where to, Sir Lancelot?
Steve: Gonna get a cup of coffee.
Julie: Gonna be a good boy?
Steve: Sure, if that's what you want.
