"You're trying to mix me up then." He took her hand in his and made her look at him. "You've been playing with me for some time. I was a different kind of a breed from anything you'd been used to in New York, and you liked to wind me up so that you could see the wheels go 'round. You've had a lot of fun out of me in one way or another, and you still find me amusing."

"One can't think unless one is cold-blooded."
"When a woman's in love she doesn't want to think."
"I'm not in love—I simply say I'll marry you, that's all."
"You're talking nonsense."
"I never was saner in my life. I want you to believe in my kind of friendship."
"Eight hundred thousand dollars' worth of friendship is not to be sneezed at."
