Cuthbert J. Twillie: May I present my card?
Flower Belle Lee: 'Novelties and Notions.' What kind of notions you got?
Cuthbert J. Twillie: You'd be surprised. Some are old, some are new. Whom have I the honor of addressing, m'lady?
Flower Belle Lee: Mmm, they call me Flower Belle.
Cuthbert J. Twillie: Flower Belle, what a euphonious appellation. Easy on the ears and a banquet for the eyes.
Flower Belle Lee: You're kinda cute yourself.
Cuthbert J. Twillie: Thank you. I never argue with a lady.
Flower Belle Lee: Smart boy.

Schoolboy: We was doin' arithmetic on the blackboard when Miss Foster took sick.
Flower Belle Lee: Oh, arithmetic... I was always pretty good at figures myself.

Flower Belle Lee: Two and two is four and five will get you ten if you know how to work it.
