    The story is mediocre, the dialogue is lifeless, but the rivalry between the two actors is a little bit...

    I like it very much! It is no longer a simple screwball comedy. CG and Hepburn are so good, they really sparkle when they play together. I like the small world like the play room very much. Ned is so...

Holiday quotes

  • Johnny Case: I don't call what I've been doing living.

    Linda Seton: And what do you recommend for yourself, doctor?

    Johnny Case: A holiday.

    Linda Seton: For how long?

    Johnny Case: As long as I need.

    Linda Seton: You mean just to play?

    Johnny Case: No. I've been working since I was 10. I want to find out why I'm working. It can't just be to pay bills and pile up more money. Even if you do, the government's going to take most of it.

    Linda Seton: But what is the answer?

    Johnny Case: I don't know. That's what I intend to find out. The world's changing out there. There are a lot of new, exciting ideas running around. Some may be right and some may be cockeyed but they're affecting all our lives. I want to know how I stand, where I fit in the picture, what it's all gonna mean to me. I can't find that out sitting behind some desk in an office, so as soon as I get enough money together, I'm going to knock off for a while.

  • Johnny Case: I want to save part of my life for myself. There's a catch to it, though. It's gotta be part of the young part. You know, retire young, work old, come back and work when I know what I'm working for. Does that make any sense?

    Linda Seton: That makes a lot of sense. Does Julia know?

    Johnny Case: No, I don't want to raise her hopes until I get enough money together.

    Linda Seton: Oh, she has enough for two right now, or ten for that matter.

    Johnny Case: No, that's out. I don't want her dough. I want to earn it myself.

    Linda Seton: That's foolish. You're alright, though, Case. You haven't been bitten yet. You haven't been caught by it.

    Johnny Case: By what?

    Linda Seton: The reverence for riches. Look out for that, Johnny.
