Quotes 

• Bertha Dorset : I wish the men would always stay away. It's really much nicer without them. Oh, you don't count, George. One never talks to one's husband.

  Judy Trenor : But, wives never like their husbands talking to other women.

  Bertha Dorset : Only if the women in question are slightly too eligible - or divorced.

  George Dorset : Wives may do as they wish. Husbands are expected to be like money - influential, but silent.

  Augustus 'Gus' Trenor : If divorcees were more acceptable, I might be tempted.

  Judy Trenor : Gus!

• George Dorset : You would not have cared for the denouement.

  Lily Bart : The denouement? Isn't that too big a word for a small incident?

• Lily Bart : I saw nothing. I know nothing.

  George Dorset : Just say what you know and the way will be clear for us both.

  Lily Bart : I know nothing.

  George Dorset : You're sacrificing both of us.

  Lily Bart : I know nothing. Absolutely nothing.
