Sparks, radioman Quotes in Only Angels Have Wings (1939)

Bonnie Lee: They must love it. Flying, I mean.

Sparks, radioman: Why do you think they come down to this kind of a place?

Bonnie Lee: It's like being in love with a buzz saw.

Sparks, radioman: Not much future in it.

Bonnie Lee: What is there about it that gets them?

Sparks, radioman: I'm not a flier myself. Hey, you'd better ask the Kid. Miss Lee. Mr. Dabb.

Bonnie Lee: How'd you do?

Sparks, radioman: She wants to know why you like flying.

Kid Dabb: I've been in it 22 years, Miss Lee. I couldn't give you an answer that would make any sense. What's so funny about that?

Bonnie Lee: That's what my dad used to say.

Kid Dabb: Flier?

Bonnie Lee: No, trapeze. High stuff. He wouldn't use a net.

Sparks, radioman: Not much future in that, either.

Bonnie Lee: Yes. We found that out.

Bonnie Lee: So long, Sparks.

Sparks, radioman: Going bye?

Bonnie Lee: Nobody asked me to stay.
