Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Ray Lloyd : What do you see in that girl?

  Mr. Barnes : Ah, well...

  Ray Lloyd : I'll tell you. All that's beautiful, clean, decent, desirable, wholesome, and commercial. You'll photograph in color, of course.

  Mr. Barnes : Of course.

• Ray Lloyd : Come here. Look at that girl. Here.

  [hands Barnes some binoculars] 

  Mr. Barnes : Oh, thank you.

  Ray Lloyd : Her smile has sold more toothpaste, her legs more nylons, her middle more girdles than you could possibly believe.

  Mr. Barnes : I believe everything.

  Ray Lloyd : Described by 'Look' magazine as the girl with the perfect figure. She could run away with the Miss America title, any year, but I won't let her compete.

  Mr. Barnes : Why?

  Ray Lloyd : Wouldn't be fair. Besides, I need her here with me.

• Mr. Barnes : How do you manage to stay single?

  Ray Lloyd : Well, in this business, you can have only one boss. You get married, that's two bosses. That means trouble. So, I stay single and beautiful Cypress Gardens stays one big happy family.
