    Holly Golightly: You know those days when you’ve got the mean reds?
    Paul: The mean reds? You mean like the blues?
    Holly Golightly: No, the blues are because you’re getting fat or maybe it’s been raining too long. You’re just sad, that’s all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you’re afraid and you don’t know what you’re afraid of.
    —George Axelrod (b. 1922)

    José’s my first non-rat romance. Not that he’s my idea of the absolute finito. He’s too prim and cautious to be my absolute ideal, Now, if I could choose from anybody alive, I wouldn’t pick José. Nehru, maybe, or Albert Schweitzer. Or Leonard Bernstein.
    —George Axelrod (b. 1922)
