The Awful Truth Quotes

Cary Grant as Jerry Warriner

  • (Cary Grant) "What do we drink to?"
  • (Irene Dunne) "Well, let's drink to our future. Here's hoping you and Barbara will be very happy, which I doubt very much."
  • (Cary Grant) "No, let's drink to your happiness with Buffalo Bill, which doesn't even make sense."
  • (Cary Grant) "Well, have you heard the gag that's going around town lately; "Who was that lady I saw you with?""
  • (Joyce Compton) "Oh, you mean, "That's no lady, that's your wife"?"
  • (Cary Grant) "In the spring, a young man's fancy lightly turns to what he's been thinking about all winter."
  • (Cary Grant) "What did you tell him?"
  • (Irene Dunne) "I told him the truth, and strange enough, he believed me."
  • (Unnamed) "Glad to know you."
  • (Cary Grant) "Well, how can you be glad to know me? I know how I'd feel if I was sitting with a girl and her husband walked in."
  • (Irene Dunne) "I'll bet you do."
  • (Cary Grant) "I'm going out to get some popcorn and pink lemonade. I've just seen a three-ring circus."

  • (Cary Grant) "Naturally she's anxious to meet you, too, but --"
  • (Irene Dunne) "Yes, tell her I'd love to meet her. Tell her to wear boxing gloves."
  • (Cary Grant) "In a half an hour, we'll no longer be Mr. and Mrs. Funny, isn't it."
  • (Irene Dunne) "Yes, it's funny that everything's the way it is on account of the way you feel."
  • (Cary Grant) "Huh?"
  • (Irene Dunne) "Well, I mean, if you didn't feel that way you do, things wouldn't be the way they are, would they? I mean, things could be the same if things were different."
  • (Cary Grant) "But things are the way you made them."
  • (Irene Dunne) "Oh, no. No, things are the way you think I made them. I didn't make them that way at all. Things are just the same as they always were, only, you're the same as you were, too, so I guess things will never be the same again."

Irene Dunne as Lucy Warriner

  • (Unnamed) "Are you sure you don't like that fella?"
  • (Irene Dunne) "Like him? You saw the way I treated him, didn't you?"
  • (Unnamed) "That's what I mean. Back on my ranch, I got a little red rooster and a little brown hen and they fight all the time too, but every once in a while they make up again and they're right friendly."
  • (Irene Dunne) "Armand, I'm wondering, could you do me a favor?"
  • (Alexander D'Arcy) "Oh, of course."
  • (Irene Dunne) "I've been thinking, I wonder if you could convince him that everything was just as I said it was that night at the inn. You know, the night --"
  • (Alexander D'Arcy) "Oh, I'll be glad to, but does, uh, does he carry a gun?"
  • (Irene Dunne) "I've seen your picture in the paper and wondered what you looked like."
  • (Irene Dunne) "You're all confused, aren't you?"
  • (Cary Grant) "Aren't you?"
  • (Irene Dunne) "No."
  • (Cary Grant) "Well you should be, because you're wrong about things being different because they're not the same. Things are different except in a different way. You're still the same, only I've been a fool -- but I'm not now."
  • (Irene Dunne) "Oh."
  • (Cary Grant) "So long as I'm different don't you thing that -- well maybe things could be the same again -- only a little different, huh?"
  • (Irene Dunne) "I wouldn't go on living with you if you were dipped in platinum. So go on, divorce me. Go on, divorce me. It'll be a pleasure."

  • (Cary Grant) "No, I don't."
  • (Irene Dunne) "Well, being a woman I do. You said -- this'll hand you a laugh. You said, "Lend an ear, I implore you, this comes from my heart: I'll always adore you, 'til death do us part." Remember? It was pretty swell -- I mean, while it lasted. But all beautiful things must end, so I guess we might as well call it a day."
  • (Irene Dunne) "You've come back and caught me in the truth, and there's nothing less logical than the truth."
  • (Irene Dunne) "Millions of dollars and no sense."
