Quotes:

Betsy Brown: [singing] Don't wear a long face, it's never in style! Be optimistic and smile!

Miss Hutchins: I'm sorry to say - or perhaps I shouldn't say sorry - but we won't have the pleasure of hearing Betsy sing for us again. Mr. Shea was a dear friend of her parents and he and his daughter have come to take her to live with them in New York. I'm sure she has our warmest wishes for happiness in her new home.

Barbara Shea: Now don't you stay up listening to that music. You just shut your eyes and go right to sleep.::Betsy Brown: I'll shut my eyes, but it'll probably come in through my ears.

Barbara Shea: [on the telephone] This is Mr. Shea's daughter. My father isn't home right n - Well, I'm awfully sorry the boys are rehearsing, but I'll be glad to...::Sarah Wendling: [on the telephone] I'm tired of warning you people. I won't have my nights disturbed by a lot of noisy riffraff. I won't put up with it any longer!::Barbara Shea: I'm sorry, Miss Wendling, I'll go right up and...::Sarah Wendling: [hangs up] .::Betsy Brown: What's wrong?::Barbara Shea: She called us a lot of riffraff.::Betsy Brown: Who?::Barbara Shea: Our landlady.::Betsy Brown: I didn't know we had one.::Barbara Shea: Well, if you ever see a pumpkin in one of the windows next door and it isn't Halloween, that's our landlady.

Betsy Brown: If you're looking for Miss Wendling, she isn't home. I'm waiting for her too, on important business.::Roger Wendling: Maybe if it's very important, I might put in a good word for you.::Betsy Brown: Oh! do you know Miss Wendling?::Roger Wendling: Oh, yes, very well. You see, she's my aunt.::Betsy Brown: She is? Well, say! Would you give her this [handing him a child's piggy bank] and tell her it's on account of the rent for the hotel?::Roger Wendling: The hotel? What hotel?::Betsy Brown: Next door.::Roger Wendling: Whom shall I say this is from?::Betsy Brown: From Betsy. No, from Pop, Mr. Shea.

Betsy Brown: I used to be an orphan before Pop adopted me.::Roger Wendling: That is a coincidence, you know, I used to be an orphan myself!::Betsy Brown: It's too bad we weren't orphans at the same time. We could've had lots of fun together!

Roger Wendling: This young lady wants to give you money to pay the rent on the hotel.::Sarah Wendling: Nonsense! So you've gone in for social service, have you?::Roger Wendling: Not exactly, Aunt Sarah, I just met an acquaintance.::Betsy Brown: There's almost five dollars in here, and I'm sure Pop will have the rest for you very soon.::Willoughby Wendling: Bless my soul!::Sarah Wendling: Keep your soul out of this. You will please get rid of this child.::Roger Wendling: But Aunt Sarah...::Sarah Wendling: If those people next door think they can play on my sympathy like this, they are greatly mistaken. I'll have my rent, all of it, or out they go.

William J. 'Pop' Shea: Well, Mr. Wendling, I can't possibly raise the money in five days.::Roger Wendling: Well, Mr. Shea, I was going to make a suggestion before your daughter so graciously knighted me. I was going to suggest that perhaps I could lend you the twenty-five hundred. Why not?::William J. 'Pop' Shea: You'd lend...? Thanks a million!::Betsy Brown: Thanks TWO million- one for me!::Barbara Shea: I'm sorry, but we can't accept your generous offer.::William J. 'Pop' Shea: Why not, Barbara?::Barbara Shea: Because I don't know how we'd be able to pay it back, and we're not going to be at the mercy of some spiteful old moneybag who calls us a lot of riffraff!

Betsy Brown: Barbara is awful smart. She reads great big books when she's not helping Pop run the hotel.::Roger Wendling: She does?::Betsy Brown: Yes, she told me she's studying how not to be an actress.::Roger Wendling: I see. Well, does she have any boyfriends?::Betsy Brown: Oh, yes, lots of them. There's Ole, the Martins, Jimmy and his Jazz Bandits...::Roger Wendling: No, I mean someone who takes her out to dinner. A sweetheart?::Betsy Brown: Oh, no. I guess she's just an old maid, like I was before you came along.

Jimmy Clayton: Eight bucks from the Tri-State Field and five from the Downs. Now how much we short?::William J. 'Pop' Shea: About twenty-one hundred.::Jimmy Clayton: National debt! I thought I was bringing home the bacon.::Flossie: And you laid an egg!::William J. 'Pop' Shea: Thanks just the same. You're a great guy, Jimmy.::Flossie: That goes for me too, bubble-brain.::Jimmy Clayton: Is that straight from the balcony, Juliet? Must be my streamline personality. Guess I ain't as bad as I look, eh?::Flossie: You couldn't be!::William J. 'Pop' Shea: That does it! From now on whenever you talk to me, you can start the conversation with goodbye!
