    I’m not an Uncle Tom.... I’m going to be here for 40 years. For those who don’t like it, get over it.
    Clarence Thomas (b. 1948)

    You don’t want a general houseworker, do you? Or a traveling companion, quiet, refined, speaks fluent French entirely in the present tense? Or an assistant billiard-maker? Or a private librarian? Or a lady car-washer? Because if you do, I should appreciate your giving me a trial at the job. Any minute now, I am going to become one of the Great Unemployed. I am about to leave literature flat on its face. I don’t want to review books any more. It cuts in too much on my reading.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    I’ve got to go. That’s one of the penalties of being a doctor. I never seem to finish a conversation.
    Robert M. Fresco, and Jack Arnold. Dr. Matt Hastings (John Agar)
