Quotes 

• Gertie : Say, listen, if you keep talkin' Greek to me Napoleon, I'm gonna knock every bone apart. Get it?

  The Frenchman : Bone apart? Oh! Napoleon Bonaparte! C'est moi! Oui! Oui!

• Gertie : But, listen, honey. Buck up. We'll pull out of this mess, somehow.

• Gertie : Listen, brother, you better watch out or the squirrels will store you away for the winter like a nut!

  The Frenchman : Nut? Nut?

  Gertie : Hazel nut. Walnuts. Hickory nuts. Peanuts!

  The Frenchman : Ah!

  [points at himself] 

  The Frenchman : Nuts!

• The Frenchman : Cinq, eh?

  Gertie : Cinq. Cinq. Sink. Go lay in one and turn the water on.

• Gertie : Gee, I wish I was back in New York.

  Dorval : But, don't you like it here?

  Gertie : I've been in gay Paris for six months lookin' for a live one. And the best I can get is this deadhead. Aren't you a deadhead, duckie?

  [the Frenchman bashfully smiles] 

  Gertie : Come here, snookie. Come here. Come on, give. Tell Momma, what's your name?

• Gertie : Go on, say it, call me names. You can't make me blush, I'm anemic.
