Has he had as much as he could do to keep on the fence during this moral earthquake?... He could at least have resigned himself into fame.”

    “To tell you the truth, I’m relieved that the Van Ripers are not coming. He’s telling the same jokes he told twenty years ago and she dyes her hair. I think it’s a shrimp pink now.”
    —Adele Comandini, and Edward Sutherland. Michael O’Brien (Charles Winninger)
