I thought you said you'd never " "What I mean is this: I was going to be married once and now I'm going to be married again. See? Oh, you know what I mean.
All that stuff in the newspapers about those messengers disappearing out of Wall Street with bonds! Getaway, are you mixed up in that? Getaway!" "Well, well! I like that!
