- Marilyn Saunders: Oh God, I've tried to put up with you, I've even tried to be a good wife, but you wouldn't have it would you? No I was just something you'd bought, one of your possessions. Well I've had enough do you hear me? I said I've had enough. I don't care if you die - yes, I wish you were dead!
- Marilyn Saunders: Don't you dare touch me!
- George Saunders: Dare? I'll 'touch' you so you'll remember it for the rest of your miserable days!
- Marilyn Saunders: I know it wasn't a very nice thing to have happened, but as long as we don't think about it any more, then we can be free. You do see that Tom, don't you? All we have to do is forget all about it.
- Marilyn Saunders: Have you ever thought about getting married?
- Rosie: No thank you! Men!
- Marilyn Saunders: Haven't you ever fancied anyone at all?
- Marilyn Saunders: They're all the same. Keep on at you about going for a walk, and then, if you do, they get ideas.
- George Saunders: The sooner you realise who wears the trousers round here, the more peace we shall have.
