Felix Bassenak
- Felix Bassenak: Sam?
- Sam: Yes, sir?
- Felix Bassenak: Catastrophe, what is it?
- Sam: It's from the Greek. It means "a misfortune, a cataclysm or a serious calamity."
- Felix Bassenak: It is good?
- Sam: No, sir. That's bad.
- Felix Bassenak: That coat! What's the meaning?
- Elizabeth Lane: Don't worry, I'm paying for it myself. It'll take my next six months' salary. Nice, isn't it?
- Felix Bassenak: Six months' work for a coat?
- Elizabeth Lane: All my life I promised myself a mink coat. You know, Felix, it's very important to keep promises, especially to yourself.
- Felix Bassenak: Do you have to promise so expensively?
- Elizabeth Lane: But I need it!
- Felix Bassenak: You need it? Nobody needs a mink coat but a mink.
- Judge Crowthers: I suppose you'll give the bride away, Uncle Felix?
- Felix Bassenak: Me? I don't give nobody away. Always I keep my mouth shut.
- Felix Bassenak: I had a silk hat when I was in Budapest. It made me feel so fine, but then I got fired with a silk hat.
- Alexander Yardley: [Elizabeth's baby needs medical attention] I don't want anything to happen to that baby. It will ruin my circulation.
- Felix Bassenak: It won't do the baby no good, neither.
- Elizabeth Lane: Oh, Felix, this is awful. We have a new baby - it's a boy.
- Felix Bassenak: It's life. Sometimes you get girls, sometimes boys.
- Mary Lee: Excuse me, does Miss Elizabeth Lane live here?
- Felix Bassenak: Everybody lives here. Come in.
