| Quotes from the Movie | |
| Quotes from the Movie | "Fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a bumpy night."--Margo Channing (Bette Davis). <br> <br> "That's all television is, dear--just auditions."--Addison DeWitt (George Sanders) to Miss Casswell (Marilyn Monroe) <br> <br> "That I should want you at all suddenly strikes me as the height of improbability... you're an improbable person, Eve, but so am I. We have that in common. Also a contempt for humanity, an inability to love or be loved, insatiable ambition--and talent. We deserve each other." --DeWitt to Eve (Anne Baxter) <br> <br> "The bed looks like a dead animal act."--Birdie (Thelma Ritter) <br> <br> "What a story! Everything but the bloodhounds snappin' at her rear end!"--Birdie <br> <br> "I have lived in the theater as a Trappist monk lives in his faith. In it I toil not, nor do I spin. I am a critic and a commentator. I am essential to the theater--as ants to a picnic, as the boll weevil to a cotton field."--DeWitt <br> <br> "Everybody has a heart--except for some people."--Channing |
