Movie quotes

  • (..) Nobody cared for Amos. No one looked after him. I can't have him here any longer. It's worse than a baby. In the morning, I had to go out to the nursery. When I returned, the place was a mess and covered with bread crumbs. - Hang on to him, for a day or two. - Really, I can't. (..)
