Movie quotes

  • (..) Well, then I'm afraid... I will be forced to go to your competition. I'm afraid they won't help you either. You see, in our line of work, a man has to present to the customer a convincing air of healthful vitality. Not to mention trustworthiness and incorruptibility. Please, please, please, please. (..)
