The best place to meet a guy is the supermarket. You see a guy holding a list, you know he's married. He's in the frozen-food section carrying a small basket, he's single. I hang out by fruits and vegetables. Better chance of getting a guy who's healthy.

I thought a great place to meet girls would be night school where they teach English. Because these girls would be from foreign lands and maybe still a little disoriented from the journey and I would look attractive because I speak English very goodly. But in the end, it did not work out as I had hoped. I mean, basically, I was told to take a hike in 14 languages.
Dialogue
Dolly: So, what do you think of my competition?
Sarah: I don't really wanna discuss my father's...
Dolly: Oh, it's okay. It's okay. I know. | A woman always knows. Not always. Your guy go younger?
Sarah: Yeah.
Dolly: They always go younger, don't they? It does seem to trend that way, doesn't it? When they're 80, they want 60. When they're 60, they want 40. When they're 80, they want 40. And they get it. Goddamn supply and demand. We ought to kill the guy who thought that one up.
Sarah: You're in different leagues, Dad. You and Dolly. I think she's starting to fall for you.
Bill: Well, I'm sorry if...
Sarah: No, you're not. Because being a man today means never having to say you're sorry.
