- Betsy Booth: Me, a child? Listen here, Andrew Hardy, my mother just bought me an evening dress that simply has no visible means of support!
- Andy Hardy: The next ten years are the best years of my life.
- Judge Hardy: At any age, the next ten years are the best years in a man's life.
- Andy Hardy: Well, Dad, how could a fellow be unfaithful to a girl he hasn't even met yet?
- Judge Hardy: That's very easy. When entering into an illicit romance, you're just inviting yourself to the habit of unfaithfulness. Infidelity is a habit, all too easy to acquire if it begins before marriage. The habit of transferring one's affections from one girl to another, it's very apt to destroy the ability to bestow those same affections permanently on your wife.
