Rob Salinger : I don't want to divorce, Micki, I just want to marry Maude.
Leo Brody : You can't have your cake and eat it too.
Rob Salinger : I've been with her for ten years. I can't give them up just like that. And it's have your cake and eat it too.
Leo Brody : What do you mean?
Rob Salinger : To have your cake, anyone can do. To eat it and still have some left, that's the trick.
Leo Brody : Eat your cake, have your cake, who cares? You're about to get a plate of sauteed brains thrown into your face, your entire career is the toilet, and you're correcting my grammar?
