Don Lockwood: Well, we movie stars get the glory. I guess we have to take the little heartaches that go with it. People think we lead lives of glamour and romance, but we're really lonely - terribly lonely.

Rosco: What's your name? Don Lockwood: Don Lockwood sir, but the fellas all call me Donald. Rosco: Wise guy, eh? All right, get this guy into Bert's suit! And remember Lockwood, you might be trading that fiddle in for a harp!
[Don's about to start shooting a new movie] Cosmo Brown: What's this one about? Don Lockwood: It's a French revolution story... Cosmo Brown: Don't tell me. You're a French aristocrat, she's a simple girl of the people, and she won't even give you a t...
