Joe Gillis : Norma, I can't take it, you've bought me enough.
Norma Desmond : Shut up, I'm rich! I'm richer than all this new Hollywood trash! I've got a million dollars.
Joe Gillis : Keep it.
Norma Desmond : Own three blocks downtown, I've got oil in Bakersfield, pumping, *pumping*, pumping! What's it for but to buy us anything we want!
Joe Gillis : Cut out that "us" business!
Norma Desmond : What's the matter with you?
Joe Gillis : What right do you have to take me for granted?
Norma Desmond : What right? Do you want me to tell you?
Joe Gillis : Has it ever occurred to you that I may have a life of my own? That there may be some girl I'm crazy about?
Norma Desmond : Who? Some car hop, or dress extra?
Joe Gillis : What I'm trying to say is that I'm all wrong for you. You want a Valentino, somebody with polo ponies, a big shot!
