Elaine Devry Quotes

Cleo Ruskin Want to help with my garden?

Jake Iverson No, Cleo, I think it's real bad luck to go digging around in somebody else's garden.

Secretary I'm sorry, Mr. Hawk. I called the motel, but they said your nephew checked out.

Alonzo Hawk What do you mean he's checked out? When? Where? Who told him he could check out? How dare he disappear when he knows I'm worried sick? I'll tear his chicken-livered gizzard to pieces! I'll stomp him silly! I'll take this letter knife, and I'll stab that kid right in his ungrateful breastbone! You know me, Millicent; normally I'm a kindly, fun-loving fellow! But when I get crossed...I go bananas.

Alonzo Hawk Who're these clowns?

Secretary They're your new layers, Mr. Hawk. You fired the others yesterday.

Alonzo Hawk Okay, fellas, now I want to tear down the Steinmetz firehouse. Okay?

Lawyer Just a moment. Mr. Hawk. Do you have the necessary permit?

Alonzo Hawk Of course I don't have a permit! I don't even own the land yet!

Secretary Sorry, Mr. Hawk. Such an action would only jeopardize your entire legal standing of your new building. We can't permit...

Alonzo Hawk Will you get outta here? I didn't hire you to tell me what I can't do, I hired you to tell me how I could do it! GOOOOOO!
