- Ludovic: When I first moved to Paris, I lived near the Folies-Bergeres. I used to leave my door ajar, hoping a girl would wander in. No luck.
- Marthe: When I was younger, I kept falling in love. I'd see a boy, I'd like him. I couldn't sleep. I'd be crazy about him, but I wouldn't let him touch me. I was so stupid.
- Ludovic: We'll keep it platonic and just enjoy being together.
- Marthe: They'll be jeolous.
- Ludovic: So what? Our conscience will be clear. The years will go by. We'll be a stunning couple. "Do you realize they've been together 20 years and have never had sex?" "No, really!"
- Marthe: [laughs] What we have is fabulous. Will it stay that way?
- Jacques, Ludovic's Uncle: I'm going to sing you something.
- Wedding Guest: Please no! You sing off-key!
- Jacques, Ludovic's Uncle: No? Well then, I'll show you my ass!
- Marthe: What a pretty hat.
- Ludovic: It'd look great on you.
- Marthe: My husband hates me to wear hats.
- Ludovic: Then I'll buy it for you.
- Marthe: Okay! I'll wear it home. The look on his face! What does your wife hate?
- Ludovic: Flashy ties. She thinks they're vulgar.
- Marthe: I'll buy you a hideous tie.
- Ludovic: Great! I'll wear it to the clinic!
- Marthe: What's going to happen now?
- Ludovic: We could say "tu" and "toi."
- Marthe: That's not easy for me. But I promise I'll try.
- Ludovic: Then two things. First we either sleep together or we don't.
- Marthe: If we do, we'll have to lie, you to your wife and me to Pascal. Kind of pathetic, isn't it? Or we could do it and then say goodbye forever.
- Ludovic: Then I'd rather not.
- Pascal: [drunk, grabbing Marthe's mother] Your daughter's not bad, but you're fantastic. I love you! Men should marry their wives' mothers first.
- Marthe's mother: Your dad has given me a new lease on life. Today, I even listened to the news on the radio. But it was of no interest.
- Pascal: Talk to your sister. She'll listen to you. She has to understand that a man can only prove himself by sleeping with other women. I love Marthe. I want to keep her. What counts in life is family. I'm very family-oriented.
- [Diane laughs]
- Pascal: She makes a show of her affair. What kind of example is that for our son? I did it in secret. In secret, it's okay.
- [Diane laughs]
- Pascal: It's about decency!
