Dr. Sporum : Never let it be said that a Sporum ever refused the request of a Ginglebusher.

Luisa : Well, I mean, I suppose everybody really wants to do something for somebody naturally, because it makes you feel good, and all happy in your heart, and... well, I suppose everybody naturally wants to feel that way, don't you think?
Dr. Sporum : I believe one could say that with safety.

Luisa : [Talking about Max buying a car] All right then, it's gotta be pink.
Dr. Sporum : Pink?
Luisa : Of course it has. You can't take that beard around with a black car. Why, you'll frighten the children.
Dr. Sporum : You oughta be spanked.

Dr. Sporum : You are the good fairy. You flew into my life and changed everything.
Luisa : No, you're the good fairy who changed my life.
Detlaff, the Waiter : No, no, no! As a matter of fact, I'm entirely responsible.
Konrad : If you say it was you, I'll punch you right in the eye. If there's any good fairy around here, it's me.

Luisa : Oh, my name is Luisa.
Dr. Sporum : Luisa?
Luisa : Ginglebusher.
Dr. Sporum : Gingle what?
Luisa : Busher.
Dr. Sporum : Oh, yes, and you need to see me about...
Luisa : No, I just wanted to see what you look like.
Dr. Sporum : Uh huh. And how do I look?
Luisa : [Smiling] Terrible, heh, heh
Dr. Sporum : Really?
Luisa : You look just the way Ginglebusher sounds.
Dr. Sporum : Oh, then I can't look so terrible. Will you sit down?
-
Dr. Sporum : But if I had a name like Ginglebusher, I should certainly use no other.
Luisa : If I had a beard like that... I certainly wouldn't make fun of Ginglebusher.
Dr. Sporum : That, I think , concludes the legal business.
-
Dr. Sporum : I'm not a child, you know.
Konrad : No. Nobody could mistake you for one.
-
Konrad : [after Max mentions a specific court case] I always wanted to congratulate you on winning it.
Dr. Sporum : But I lost it.
Konrad : Oh, you, uh, uh, of course, that's it... . but so cleverly. So very cleverly, doctor. Sometimes it's better to lose a case cleverly than to win it stupidly. That's what we admired.

Dr. Sporum : Did you know there's an ice box that actually makes it's own ice?
Luisa : Noooo!
Dr. Sporum : And with gas.
Luisa : I don't believe it.
Dr. Sporum : I didn't either, but I read about it and I might even buy one.
-
Dr. Sporum : Mink coats and diamond bracelets - what's he take me for? I'm gong to buy a pencil sharpener... with a handle, and different size holes, at last.
-
Luisa : And I certainly wouldn't wear a beard either.
Dr. Sporum : What?
Luisa : Well, I wouldn't.
Dr. Sporum : Oh, you wouldn't?
Luisa : I know it isn't any of my business, but if I didn't have anything to hide, I certainly wouldn't wear a beard.
