Gentlemen Prefer Blondes

Lady Beekman:
You'll find I mean business!

Dorothy Shaw:
Oh, really? Then why are you wearing that hat?

Dorothy Shaw:
I like a man who can run faster than I can.

Dorothy Shaw:
In bed by nine? That's when life just begins!

Dorothy Shaw:
The chaperone's job is to see that no one else is having any fun, but nobody chaperones the chaperone. That's why I'm so right for this job.

Esmond Sr.:
Have you got the nerve to tell me you don't want to marry my son for his money?

Lorelei Lee:
It's true.

Esmond Sr.:
Then what do you want to marry him for?

Lorelei Lee:
I want to marry him for YOUR money.

Lorelei Lee:
Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You wouldn't marry a girl just because she's pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?

Lady Beekman:
It's a tiara.

Lorelei Lee:
You DO wear it on your head. I just LOVE finding new places to wear diamonds.

Dorothy Shaw:
Remember, honey, on your wedding day it's alright to say "yes."

Lorelei Lee:
We're just two little girls from Little Rock.

Lorelei Lee:
Excuse me, but what is the way to Europe, France?

Dorothy Shaw:
Honey, France is IN Europe.

Lorelei Lee:
Well who said it wasn't?

Dorothy Shaw:
Well... you wouldn't say you wanted to go to North America, Mexico.

Lorelei Lee:
If that's where I wanted to go, I would.

Lorelei Lee:
If you've nothing more to say, then pray, scat!

Lorelei Lee:
How do you put it around your neck?

Dorothy Shaw:
You don't, lovey, it goes on your head!

Lorelei Lee:
You must think I was born yesterday.

Dorothy Shaw:
Well, sometimes there's just no other possible explanation.

Henry Spofford III:
All right. I'll help you. I'll help you for two reasons.

Lorelei Lee:
Never mind the reasons. Just help me.

Henry Spofford III:
The first reason is I'm too young to be sent to jail. The second reason is you got a lot of animal magnetism.

Lorelei Lee:
I've been wondering, what's your line Mr. Malone?

Ernie Malone:
My line? My most effective one is to tell a girl she has hair like a tortured midnight, lips like a red couch in an ivory palace that I'm lonely and starved for affection. Then, I generally burst into tears. It seldom works.

Mr. Esmond Sr.:
Are you out of your mind?

Ernie Malone:
Mm-hmm, but I like it that way.

Dorothy Shaw:
Honey, did it ever occur to you that some people just don't care about money?

Lorelei Lee:
Please, we're talking serious here.

Gus Esmond:
[looking at Dorothy who is admiring some athletes] Dorothy Shaw, you're supposed to be the chaperone on the trip!

Dorothy Shaw:
Now let's get one thing straight, Gus: The chaperone's job is to make sure nobody else has any fun. But nobody chaperones the chaperone. That's why I'm so right for this job.

Dorothy Shaw:
Oh no, you're not one of those, are you?

Ernie Malone:
One of what?

Dorothy Shaw:
The kind who thinks he has to tell a girl how much money he has.

Ernie Malone:
What's the matter with having money?

Dorothy Shaw:
Yes, I'm afraid you are. Do me a favor, will you Malone? Go whistle up a rope.

Lorelei Lee:
Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You wouldn't marry a girl just because she's pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?

Mr. Esmond Sr.:
Say, they told me you were stupid! You certainly don't seem stupid to me!

Lorelei Lee:
I can be smart when it's important, but most men don't like it.

Lorelei Lee:
I want you to find happiness and stop having fun.

Lorelei Lee:
There was an old man named Sidney... Who drank till he ruined a kidney. It shriveled and shrank, but he drank and he drank... He had his fun doing it, didn't he?
