Ian Hunter: Barton Kendrick
Quotes
-
Barton Kendrick : Why do you have this pink mirror? You can't get a good look at yourself in it?
Diana Kendrick : Ah, but you can see what you want to see. Any woman looking into that mirror, sees a young girl of 16 looking back at her.
Barton Kendrick : Well, it's a nice idea; but, its hardly realistic.
Diana Kendrick : Oh, but it's such a comfort not to be realistic. You see, just before I go out, the last thing I do is take a look at my pink mirror. And there I am. Young, fresh and glowing! And that's the way I think of myself all evening.

Barton Kendrick : Well what are we going to do?
Johnny Jones : We are going to take what's left to us. Why, we haven't even a minute to waste on being sad. Come on, let's hurry!
Barton Kendrick : Well where should we go?
Johnny Jones : Oh I don't care. Just so there are people and music and we can be gay!
