Doc: When will you kids stop? You make this world lousy. Action: We didn't make it, Doc. -West Side Story
Cosmo: Talking pictures? That means I'm out of a job! At last I can start suffering and write that symphony. R.F.: You're not out of job. We're putting you in as head of our new music department. Cosmo: Oh, thanks, R.F.! At last I can stop suffering and write that symphony. -Singin' in the Rain
Funny business, a woman's career - the things you drop on your way up the ladder so you can move faster. You forget you'll need them again when you get back to being a woman. That's one career all females have in common, whether we like it or not: being a woman. Sooner or later, we've got to work at it, no matter how many other careers we've had or wanted. And in the last analysis, nothing's any good unless you can look up just before dinner or turn around in bed, and there he is. Without that, you're not a woman. You're something with a French provincial office or a book full of clippings, but you're not a woman. Slow curtain, the end. -All About Eve
