Roxie to her neighbor: This is Fred. He's my brother.

Roxie: Say it again, Fred.
Fred: You're a star kid. My little shooting star.

Fred: Sugar you were hot stuff. I would have said anything tog et a piece of that. *grabs her butt*

Roxie: It was self-defense. He was trying to burgle me.
Detective: From what I hear, he's been burgling you three times a week for the last month.

Roxie: *about Fred* I killed him and I would kill him again.

Mama Morton: I got a little motto / always sees me through / when you're good to mama / mama's good to you.

Mama Morton: You'll be staying on E-block. Murderess row we like to call it.
Roxie: Oh... Is that nicer?

Roxie: I was there the night that you got arrested.
Velma: Yeah, you and half of Chicago.

Liz: Pop.
Annie: Six.
June: Squish.
Hunyack: Uh-uh.
Velma: Cicero.
Mona: Lipschitz.

Liz: You know how people have these little habits that get you down? Like Bernie - Bernie liked to chew gum. No. Not chew - pop. So I came home this one day, and I'm really irritated and I'm looking for a little bit of sympathy and there's Bernie lyin' on the couch, drinking a beer and chewin. No, not chewin' -- poppin! So I said to him, I said, "You pop that gym one more time..." and he did. So I took the shotgun off the wall and I fired two warning shots... into his head.

Annie: I met Ezekial Young from Salt Lake City about two years ago, and he told me he was single... and we hit it off right away. So we started living together. He'd go to work. He'd come homr. I'd fix him a drink. We'd have dinner and then I found out. Single, he told me? Single, my ass. Not only was he married... Oh, no... he had six wives. One of those mormons, you know. So that night when he came home from work. I fixed him his drink, as usual. You know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic.

June: Now, I'm standing in the kitchen carving the chicken for dinner, minding my own business, in storms my husband, Wilbur, in a jealous rage, "You been screwin' the milkman," he says. He was crazy and he kept on scremin', "You been screwin' the milkman!" and then he ran into my knife. He ran into my knife ten times.

Velma: My sister, Veronica, and I had a this double act and my husband, Charlie, traveled around with us. Now, for the last number in our act, we did these twenty acrobatic tricks in a row -- one, two, three, four, five... splits, spread eagles, backflips, flip-flops, one right after the other. So this one night before the show, we're down at the Hotel Cicero. The three of us boozin' and havin' a few laughs and we run out of ice, so I go out to get some. I come back, open the ... and there's Veronica and Charlie doing #17... the spread eagle. Well, I was in such a state of shock, I completely blacke dout. I can't remember a thing. It wasn't until later when I was washing the blood off my hands I even knew they were dead.

Mona: I loved Al Lipschitz more than I could possibly asy. He was a real artistic guy. Senstitive -- a painter. But he was always trying to find himself. Looking for himself, he'd go and on the way -- he found Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary, and Irving. I guess you could say we broke up because of artistic differences. He saw himself as alive... and I saw him dead.

Velma: Look, honey, you want some advice? Here it is direct from me to you. Keep your paws off my underwear, okay?

Velma: Don't forget Billy Flynn's number one client is Billy Flynn.

Kitty: GO TO HELL!

Velma: J. Edgar Hoover couldn't find your name in the papers.

Roxie: They love me.
Billy: They'd love you a lot more if you were hanged. You know why? Because it would sell more papers... That's Chicago.

Amos Hart: Cellophane / Mr. Cellophane shoulda been my name, Mr. Cellophane, / 'cause you can look right through me / walk right by me / and never know I'm there.

Velma: You know you're really not that bad.
Roxie: Yeah, that and a dime. What the hell are you doing here?
Velma: Heard you been making the rounds.
Roxie: Yeah well, if it was up to you I'd be swinging by now.
Velma: I'd always knew Billy get you off. You should know how to put things behind you.
Roxie: I'll put that at the top of my list once I find a job... and an apartment, with a jon.
