- Lorelei Lee: Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty? You wouldn't marry a girl just because she's pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?

- Lorelei Lee: It's true.
- Esmond Sr.: Then what do you want to marry him for?
- Lorelei Lee: I want to marry him for YOUR money.
- Mr. Esmond Sr.: Say, they told me you were stupid! You don't sound stupid to me!
- Lorelei Lee: I can be smart when it's important. But most men don't like it.
- Ernie Malone: It seemed a good idea to bring some drinks. Here are your cigarettes.
- Dorothy Shaw: Oh, you're a dear. Good boy.

- Dorothy Shaw: You don't, honey, it goes on your head!
- Lorelei Lee: You must think I was born yesterday.
