• Molly Jorgenson : [after finding out her Mother read her love letters]  Johnny's letters were all I had to live for. And now you've even made them dirty.

  [She throws them into the fireplace] 

• Molly Jorgenson : [to the doctor who is about to examine her]  Oh, please. I want my father. I want my father. Oh, please, no. Oh, please, no. I want my father. Oh, please. I want my father. I haven't done anything wrong. I've been a good girl. I haven't done anything wrong. Please I want my father. No! No! No! I've been a good girl! No.! No!

• Helen Jorgenson : This is Dr. Matthias. I sent for him from the mainland. I want you to take off every stitch you've got on and let him examine you.

  Molly Jorgenson : But we haven't done anything wrong, mama. We slept all night...

  Helen Jorgenson : I'm not asking you for the truth because I know you'd lie. So I'm having him examine you completely and make his own report.

  Molly Jorgenson : No!

  Helen Jorgenson : [grabbing Molly's arm]  You have disgraced me enough, now do as I say!

• Molly Jorgenson : They came just in time, we better cool off.

  Johnny Hunter : Why?

  Molly Jorgenson : Because I'm afraid...

  Johnny Hunter : Of me?

  Molly Jorgenson : [shakes head no] 

  Johnny Hunter : Of yourself?

  Molly Jorgenson : Yes. That and some other new feelings that I can't explain.

  Johnny Hunter : Are you angry because...

  Molly Jorgenson : No. We've gotta be good Johnny.

  Johnny Hunter : Good... Is it that easy to be good?

  Molly Jorgenson : Are you bad Johnny? Have you been bad with girls?

• Helen Jorgenson : What have you got to say for yourself?

  Molly Jorgenson : We capsized and spent the night on the beach.

  Helen Jorgenson : I imagined as much.

• Molly Jorgenson : [Looking at the island through her binoculars on a boat with her father]  There's a boy up there watching me!

  [He runs off] 

  Molly Jorgenson : There he goes. Funny feeling being looked at without knowing it. Remember that family that lived next door to us back home?

  Ken Jorgenson : Yeah.

  Molly Jorgenson : Their son used to look at me.

  Ken Jorgenson : Without you knowing it?

  Molly Jorgenson : Well, his bedroom was right across from mine and... one night I felt naughty and went right on undressing so he could see. Then all of a sudden I... I got terribly ashamed and I ran and pulled the curtains down. I'll never forget... I had hot and cold flashes all over me afterwards. Wasn't that awful?

  Ken Jorgenson : Well, I guess every human being on earth has a few things he's ashamed of.

• Helen Jorgenson : Get that disinfectant bag and clean this bathroom. Don't forget the toilet seat.

  Molly Jorgenson : I'm... I'm sure everything's clean, mother.

  Helen Jorgenson : You can never be too sure.

• Molly Jorgenson : [watching Ken and Sylvia, her father and his mother, go to their bedroom]  Oh, Johnny... Do you suppose they make love?

  Johnny Hunter : Why shouldn't they do? They're married.

• Molly Jorgenson : [to her father]  She says I bounce when I walk. Do I?

• Molly Jorgenson : Is kissing me tough?

  Johnny Hunter : Stopping after one is.

• Helen Jorgenson : [to her husband]  When we arrive at the inn, I want her to look completely modest.

  Molly Jorgenson : She means like a boy. Flat like a pancake.
