Denham: [to Pamela Dare] I know what's bothering you! You fancy him!

Pamela Dare: [reading from her school book] And he had learned to love, I know not why, for this in such as him seemed strange of mood. But thus it was and though in solitude's small part the nipped affections have to grow, in him this glowed when all beside had ceased to glow.

Pamela Dare: Do you two...
[wiggling her hips]
Pamela Dare: Do you two shake?

Pamela Dare: Sir, would you dance with me tonight?
Mark Thackeray: Of course, but nothing too fast. I'm getting much too old for that sort of thing Miss Dare.
Pamela Dare: We'll make it something special, promise?
Mark Thackeray: Promise.
Pamela Dare: Sir, would you call me Pamela tonight?
Mark Thackeray: Yes... Pamela.

Gillian Blanchard: [talking to Mark about Pamela Dare on the bus] Make no mistake about Pamela... she's a woman in every sense of the word.

Barbara Pegg: If you want to dance wif me, you bleedin' well ask proper!

Barbara Pegg: Oooh, look at me! I am a lady, I am!
[sticks out tongue]

Barbara Pegg: Who does he think he is there? Cheeky devil.

Mark Thackeray: [entering classroom and seeing smoke] All you boys, out. Girls stay where you are. Out.
[closes door]
Mark Thackeray: I am sick of your foul language, your crude behavior and your sluttish manner. There are certain things a decent woman keeps private, and only a filthy slut would have done this and those who stood by and encouraged her are just as bad. I don't care who's responsible - you're all to blame. Now, I am going to leave this room for five minutes by which time that disgusting object had better be removed and the windows opened to clear away the stench. If you must play these filthy games, do them in your homes, and not in my classroom!

Mark Thackeray: I believe one should fight for what one believes. Provided one is absolutely sure one is absolutely right.
