Quotes 

• Mrs. Margaret Drysdale : Listen, to get these peasants to move, I'd dance the Watusi with a keg of nitroglycerin.

• Mrs. Margaret Drysdale : Have you guessed what it is I've been trying to tell you?

  Jed Clampett : No Ma'am.

  Mrs. Margaret Drysdale : Can't you tell just by looking at me?

  Jed Clampett : 'Fraid not.

  Mrs. Margaret Drysdale : Then I must tell you. This burden is more than I can carry alone. It weighs too heavily on me. I can hide it no longer. I'm infatuated.

  Jed Clampett : Well shucks Ma'am. If that's all that's been botherin' you, ferget it. You're just pleasingly plump.

• Mrs. Margaret Drysdale : Jed, I've been trying to tell you something in a subtle manner and I'm getting nowhere with it. Very well, I'll show you how I feel.

  [Mrs. Drysdale sits on Jed's lap] 

  Mrs. Margaret Drysdale : Now do you know what I've been talking about.

  Jed Clampett : I do for a fact. Your plumb shuttin' off the blood to my leg.

• Mrs. Margaret Drysdale : I'd feel much better if you could put your arm around me.

  Jed Clampett : Mrs. Drysdale, I could put my arm around you and have half of it left over. You've got to stop worryin' 'bout bein' fat.
