Adam<\/b>: No matter what you think you think, you think the same as I think.<\/p>\n

\nAmanda<\/b>: And when did you stop loving your wife? Tell the truth.
\nWarren<\/b>: At least 3 years.
\nAmanda<\/b>: Why? Tell the truth.
\nWarren<\/b>: She started getting too fat.
\nAmanda<\/b>: Did you tell her about that?
\nWarren<\/b>: Yes.
\nAmanda<\/b>: What happened?
\nWarren<\/b>: She got fatter.\n
\nAdam<\/b>: Why did you marry her?
\nWarren<\/b>: How should I know? Who knows? Why’d you marry yours? Does anybody know?\n
\nAmanda<\/b>: What I said was true, there’s no difference between the sexes. Men, women, the same.
\nAdam<\/b>: They are, huh?
\nAmanda<\/b>: Well, maybe there is a difference, but it’s a little difference.
\nAdam<\/b>: Well, you know as the French say…
\nAmanda<\/b>: What do they say?
\nAdam<\/b>: Vive la Difference!
\nAmanda<\/b>: Which means?
\nAdam<\/b>: Which means hooray for that little difference.\n
\nBeryl<\/b>: And then I heard a noise.
\nAdam<\/b>: What kind of noise?
\nBeryl<\/b>: Like a sound.\n
\nAdam<\/b>: What’s the matter? Don’t you want your rubdown? What? What are ya, sore about a little slap?
\nAmanda<\/b>: No.
\nAdam<\/b>: Well, what then?
\nAmanda<\/b>: You meant that, didn’t you? You\u00a0really<\/em>\u00a0meant that.
\nAdam<\/b>: Why, no, I…
\nAmanda<\/b>: Yes, you did. I can tell. I know your type. I know a slap from a slug.
\nAdam<\/b>: Well, OK, OK… .
\nAmanda<\/b>: I’m not so sure it is. I’m not so sure I care to-expose myself to typical instinctive masculine brutality.
\nAdam<\/b>: Oh, come now.
\nAmanda<\/b>: And it felt not only as though you meant it, but as though you felt you had a right to. I can tell.
\nAdam<\/b>: What’ve you got back there? Radar equipment?\n
\n

Amanda<\/b>: Nobody died in the evening paper, isn’t that nice?<\/p>\n

\n

Kip<\/b>: What have you been eating, raspberry jam or Amanda’s face?<\/p>\n

\nAmanda<\/b>: [addressing the court] For years, women have been ridiculed, pampered, chucked under the chin. I ask you, on behalf of us all, be fair to the fair sex.
\nAdam<\/b>: We’ll be here a year.\n
\n

Kip<\/strong>: Lawyers should never marry other lawyers. This is called in-breeding; from this comes idiot children and more lawyers.<\/p>\n

\nAmanda<\/b>: Now, you look here, Kip. I’m fighting my prejudices, but it’s clear that you’re behaving like a, like a-well, I’d hate to put it this way-like a\u00a0man<\/em>.
\nKip<\/b>: You watch your language!\n
\nKip<\/b>: Well, good luck tomorrow, Amanda. I’m on your side, I guess you know that. You’ve got me so convinced, I may even go out and become a woman. Goodnight. [leaves]
\nAdam<\/b>: And he wouldn’t have far to go, either.
\nAmanda<\/b>: Shh!
\nAdam<\/b>: What’s a matter?
\nKip<\/b>: [steps back into the kitchen and whispers] He can hear you.\n
\nAmanda<\/b>: And after you shot your husband… how did you feel?
\nDoris<\/b>: Hungry!\n
\n

Adam<\/b>: [takes a bite out of his fake gun] Licorice. If there’s anything I’m a sucker for, it’s licorice.<\/p>\n

\nBeryl<\/b>: She tried to shoot me.
\nAdam<\/b>: How do you know that?
\nBeryl<\/b>: Because she did it.\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
