- Oliver: Boy, oh boy! For the first time in our lives, we're a success. A nice little fish business and making money.
- Stanley: You know, Ollie, I've been thinking.
- Oliver: What about?
- Stanley: I know how we could make a lot more money.
- Oliver: How?
- Stanley: Well, if we caught our own fish, we wouldn't have to pay for it. And whoever we sold it to, it would be clear profit.
- Oliver: Tell me that again.
- Stanley: Well, if you caught a fish, and whoever you sold it to, they wouldn't have to pay for it. Then, the profits would, they'd go to the fish, if, eh, if you could, if you caught...
- Oliver: I know exactly what you mean.
- Oliver: Now, wait a minute. Isn't this silly?
- Stanley: What?
- Oliver: Here we are two grown-up men acting like a couple of children. Why, we ought to be ashamed of ourselves. Throwing water at one another.
- Stanley: Well, you started it.
- Oliver: No, I didn't.
- Stanley: Yes, you did.
- Oliver: Well, I didn't!
- Stanley: [starts crying] You certainly did.
- Oliver: Well, I didn't!
- Stanley: You certainly did.
- Oliver: Well, I know that I didn't.
- Stanley: You did too!
- Oliver: Well, if that's the way you feel - - - Can't we stop this quarreling? That's why we never get anyplace.
- Oliver: Let's put our brains together, so that we can forge ahead! Remember, united we stand - divided we fall.
