Kip Lurie:
Lawyers should never marry other lawyers. This is called in-breeding; from this comes idiot children... and other lawyers.
|
 |
Adam Bonner:
First of all, I should like to say that I think the arguments advanced by the counsel for the defense were sound... MERE sound!
|
 |
Amanda Bonner:
Let's all be manly!
|
 |
Amanda Bonner:
What I said was true, there's no difference between the sexes. Men, women, the same.
Adam Bonner:
They are?
Amanda Bonner:
Well, maybe there is a difference, but it's a little difference.
Adam Bonner:
Well, you know as the French say...
Amanda Bonner:
What do they say?
Adam Bonner:
Vive la difference!
Amanda Bonner:
Which means?
Adam Bonner:
Which means hurrah for that little difference.

Adam Bonner:
What are ya? Sore about a little slap?
Amanda Bonner:
No.
Adam Bonner:
Well, what then?
Amanda Bonner:
[outraged] You meant that, didn't you? You really meant that.
Adam Bonner:
Why, no, I...
Amanda Bonner:
Yes, you did. I can tell. I know your type. I know a slap from a slug.
Adam Bonner:
Well, OK, OK.
Amanda Bonner:
I'm not so sure it is. I'm not so sure I care to expose myself to typical instinctive masculine brutality.
Adam Bonner:
Oh come now.
Amanda Bonner:
And it felt not only as though you meant it, but as though you felt you had a right to. I can tell.
Adam Bonner:
What've you got back there? Radar equipment?

Adam Bonner:
No matter what you think you think, you think the same as I think.

Kip Lurie:
Amanda, my love, why do you stay married to a legal beagle with ten thumbs?
|
 |
Kip Lurie:
Amanda, I'm on your side, I guess you know that. You've got me so convinced, I may go out and become a woman.
Adam Bonner:
And he wouldn't have far to go!
|
 |
Amanda Bonner:
And after you shot your husband... how did you feel?
Doris Attinger:
Hungry!
|
 |
Beryl Caighn:
And then I heard a noise.
Adam Bonner:
What kind of noise?
Beryl Caighn:
Like a sound.
|
 |
Amanda Bonner:
Mr. Attinger had never touched you before this time?
Beryl Caighn:
Sure
Amanda Bonner:
Ahh!
Beryl Caighn:
We used to shake hands quite a lot.
Amanda Bonner:
I see. Did you enjoy it?

Warren Francis Attinger:
[to Adam Bonner] Listen, you don't get a split lip from imagination!
