• Gloria Travalian : Ivan, I'm not leaving you for another man.

  Travalian : Larry Kotzwinkle's not a man, he's a duck.

  Gloria Travalian : Larry is a wonderful man, but he's not you.

  Ivan : That's what I figured when he scratched his leg and I felt nothing. 'This man is not me.'

  Gloria Travalian : [Snobs]  How can you joke at a time like this?

  Ivan : I joke, You snob. What difference does it make? We're both miserable.

• Ivan : Okay, Gloria!

  Ivan : Sit down or I'm gonna hit you with this chair!

  Gloria Travalian : That's a table.

• Gloria Travalian : Oh, Ivan. I'm hurting you.

  Ivan : That's the kindest thing you've said to me in six months, "Oh, Ivan, I'm hurting you."

• Gloria Travalian : You're at the goddamn typewriter 14 hours a day...

  Ivan : I'M AT THE GODDAMN TYPEWRITER, GLORIA... BECAUSE I'M A GODDAMN WRITER, GLORIA!

• Gloria Travalian : Larry and I are moving to the Good Harbor Beach Inn in Massachusetts. We've agreed to live there for a three month trial period and if it works, we'll be married on Larry's birthday in March.

  Ivan : Okay... okay-I guess I'll be heading back to rehearsal. Enough taking time off from work for fun, huh? You can keep the night table, Gloria.

  Gloria Travalian : No...

  Ivan : I just wanna say that you are the craziest person I've met since the guy blocking the bank door. He was wearing a Superman cape and pantyhose... crazier than you... maybe not.
