SUSAN (discussing Jack from the fairytale “Jack and the Beanstalk”) ​ ​ ​ ​ First off, Jack was a thief, a boy who broke in to someone's home and took things that didn’t belong to him. Secondly, I agree with my mother-- it’s just a fairy tale and fairy tales are silly nonsense.

KRIS (to DORIS after being re-hired as the Macy’s ) ​ ​ You see, Mrs. Walker, for fifty years or so I’ve been mre and more worried about . Christmas is not just a thing, it’s a frame of mind. And that’s what they’ve been changing. Well I’m glad you’re taking me back--maybe I can do something about it. And I’m glad I met you and your daughter. You’re my test case!

DORIS (to FRED regarding his decision to quit his job and continue legally defending KRIS KRINGLE) ​ ​ Oh, darling, listen. We’ve hardly been apart since Thanksgiving. I-- Well, I've become incredibly fond of you. We’ve talked about some wonderful plans for the future, haven’t we? And then you do this--go on an idealistic binge, throw away your security, and expect me to be happy about it? I think I have the right to ask you to be a little bit more practical and realistic.
