: What are you supposed to do? Nancy Pryor: I don't know... I know they are worried about airspeed. Now... if we climb, the airspeed drops. I could stall us out. Bette: The Captain! He said he could help us. Captain Stacy: Thrust levers. Bette: Thrust levers, what about them? Captain Stacy: Forward... an inch. Bette: All right, anything else? Captain Stacy: One-ninety hold. Captain Stacy: One nine zero airspeed. Scott Freeman: What's the weather like there? Mrs. Scott Freeman: Well the moon's out right now, but there are a few clouds around.

[securing items in her bomb-proof case] Gloria Swanson: To hell with the jewelry, let's put my book in here! Gloria Swanson: Oh. My jewel case. It's bomb proofed, the insurance people insisted upon it. Oh. My idea of heaven is never to have to pack or unpack. Why didn't I think of that before. Here. Here. You know what? The hell with the jewelry let's put my book in here. Thank you. Here you are my darlings, it's all yours - I never wanted to have the damn thing published when I was alive anyway. [in reference to Janice Abbott arriving on the stretcher] Gloria Swanson: Oh how bless I am, three children, seven grandchildren and all healthy thank God! Gloria Swanson: I guess everyone had given up hope including the Doctors. Nobody expected me to live, but then I've never done anything I was expected to do.
