Quotes 

• Suze : [several times throughout the movie]  Please, baby, please.

• Suze : Hey, do you mind telling me if you know a guy named Teddy? Usually wears a leather jacket with the words "Young Gents" on the back.

  Lois : Is that your husband?

  Suze : [Thinks about it]  Yeah, he is.

  Lois : Does he know you're a butchie?

  Suze : [huffs a chuckle]  I'm not though. Heh. Yeah.

  Lois : So what'd your husband do to have you chasing him down here? Unless down here is the reason why you're chasing him.

  Suze : This constant desire to couple. It's so strong. It's like constant companionship. And then you forget your, the self, you know? Couple up to forget about the condition of being human and all the pains, plus how damn difficult it is to survive.

  Lois : Hmm...

  Suze : My husband, uh, Teddy, he's been so gentle with me, even when I wanted to be rough with him. How am I ever gonna give it to him the way he wants to get it?

  [Lois smokes her cigarette looking uncomfortable. Suze looks at the man sitting behind her] 

  Suze : I'm gonna ask him.

  Lois : Hey, are you writing a book here? Take a quick peek around, Warden. None of these Joe Does want to talk to you. They don't even like gals. And they're not here to flirt!

  [storms away] 

• Suze : If I was a man I'd buy a leather jacket, nice and tough.

  Ida : Well I am definitely a woman and I certainly enjoy it. I especially enjoy female friendships. All that flattery and flirting, gushes of lies and lovely words that don't mean a thing. Thrilling sport.

  Suze : I mean what I say to you.

  Ida : When?

• Suze : Ida, tell me, how does a woman get respected?

  Ida : Easy. Just be very boring. Men respect anything that bores them.

• Ida : We're smart. We like to get off. Don't gotta mince it whimper or hop around in high heeled shoes to get our way. We're choice.

  Suze : I should want a more important job than making Arthur happy.

  Ida : Your importance to Arthur has far more to do with how much you can hurt him then how happy you can make him.

  Suze : What is our marriage then? A strange sort of friendship that started out with a few sexual... privilege?

  Ida : [contemplative]  Yeah. That's marriage.

  Suze : Well I'm through being sexy.

  Ida : Ugh. How long can anyone be sexy for anyway? Even men. Although they'll always have debonair. We'll never have debonair.

• Maureen : I'm a wife. But I'm no wifey. You know, wifey with a smile across your face and a trick up your sleeve. Submissive, yet controlling. You know the type.

  Suze : I don't have a television.
