A married couple try everything to get each other to leave the house in a vicious divorce battle.
Oliver Rose: I think you owe me a solid reason. I worked my ass off for you and the kids to have a nice life and you owe me a reason that makes sense. I want to hear it. Barbara Rose: Because. When I watch you eat. When I see you asleep. When I look at you lately, I just want to smash your face in.
Gavin: My father used to say there are four things that tell the world who a man is: his house, his car, his wife and his shoes.
Oliver Rose: [just got in the chandelier which pulled him of the balcony] I think I can swing this over to the balcony. Barbara Rose: Stop it! Stop it! stop it! Barbara Rose: I loosened the bolt, I was gonna drop it on you. Oliver Rose: Oooh. That's a good one.
Gavin: There are two dilemmas... that rattle the human skull. How do you hold onto someone who won't stay? And how do you get rid of someone who won't go?
[last lines] Gavin: [on the phone with his wife] Hi, what're you doing? I'm coming home. Love you. [smooches] Gavin: Bye.
Oliver Rose: You have sunk below the deepest layer of prehistoric frog shit at the bottom of a New Jersey scum swamp.
Oliver Rose: You weren't even multiorgasmic before you met me, were you? Barbara Rose: You really expect me to keep on reassuring you sexually even now when we disgust each other?
[Finding out that they are going to get a divorce] Oliver Rose: And you better get yourself a damn good lawyer! Barbara Rose: Best your money can buy!
Barbara Rose: Have you ever made angry love? Gavin: Is there any other way?
Gavin: Oliver, my father used to say that a man can never outdo a woman when it comes to love and revenge.
[Oliver Rose pees on the fish Barbara Rose had prepared for the guests] Barbara Rose: I would never humiliate you like this! Oliver Rose: You're not equipped to, honey.
Mr. Fisk: [Speaking to the other guests after seeing Oliver urinating on the stove] A family tiff seems to be developing. I don't know if we should leave, but I definitely advise skipping the fish course.
Oliver Rose: [Oliver and Barbara pass each other on the stairs] Stinking bitch! Barbara Rose: Dumb bastard! Oliver Rose: Slut! Barbara Rose: Scum! Oliver Rose: Filth! Barbara Rose: Faggot! [Passes Susan the maid] Barbara Rose: Morning Susan.
[first lines] Gavin: [Gavin is talking to a client] You have some valid reasons for wanting a divorce. [blows his nose with a handkerchief] Gavin: Excuse me. My sinuses are very sensitive to irritants. [sprays nasal decongestant up his nostrils] Gavin: In the past five months, I think I've breathed freely with both sides working maybe a week total. [pulls a cigarette out of a pack] Gavin: I gotta cut this out. It's gonna kill me. [lights his cigarette] Gavin: I hadn't smoked for thirteen years. I kept the last cigarette from my last pack. I said if I never smoked this one cigarette I'll never smoke again, period. Thirteen years I kept that cigarette. [fetches a plastic case out of a drawer] Gavin: I had this little case made for it. [opens it and shows it to him] Gavin: Thirteen years. And then, one Thursday afternoon, Barbara came to see me. And when she left...
Barbara Rose: [after learning that Oliver is moving back into the home] This is the stupidest thing you've ever done! Oliver Rose: Second stupidest.
[Oliver Rose lies in agony, after having his penis bitten severely by Barbara Rose] Barbara Rose: Was it as good for you as it was for me?
Oliver Rose: What the hell is wrong with you? Gavin: [cut to interior of Gavin's office] If you're with a woman for any length of time, eventually you'll ask her that question.
Gavin: I should have seen her toes in the pit of my crotch as a cry for help.
Oliver Rose: [mistakenly almost hits Susan with the thrown chair] Oh, I'm sorry, Susan. I thought you are Barbara.
Barbara Rose: [after making love to Oliver, several times, upon their very first meeting] If we end up together, then this is the most romantic evening of my life. And if we don't, then I'm the world's biggest slut.
Barbara Rose: Besides money... [Barbara kicks off one of her heels and puts her foot in Gavin's crotch] Barbara Rose: what would it take to get you to help me, Gavin? Gavin: Come on, put your shoes on, Barbara. I haven't been into feet since '82.
Oliver Rose: Barbara, Susan is here. She wants to know if you are all right. Barbara Rose: Never felt better. Oliver Rose: [opens the door for Susan] Thank you for dropping by, Susan. Susan: Will you go outside with me, Mr.Rose? Oliver Rose: Let's go. [pauses] Oliver Rose: Wait a minute, I forgot something. Susan: What? Oliver Rose: Barbara! [shuts the door in front of her nose]
Barbara Rose: Get out of the car, honey! Oliver Rose: You're gonna have to kill me. Barbara Rose: I mean it, Oliver. Oliver Rose: You don't have *guts*! C'mon!
Gavin: There is no winning! Only degrees of losing!
Gavin: At 15 I became an evolutionist; and it all became clear. We came from mud. And after 3.8 billion years of evolution, at our core is still mud. Nobody can be a divorce lawyer and doubt that.
