"You want to chain your bear up tighter, Tony," chided the hotel man as the Italian led Bruno away. "Ah, yes. Bruno, he ees a very bad-a-de bear! I wheep heem for dese." "Oh, don't!" pleaded Alice. "He didn't mean anything wrong." "No, mees, but he very bad, just-a de same. He make-a you to be a-skeert."

Do you think he's so very witty?" "I can't help laughing at some things he says." "I suppose he is," Boyne ruefully admitted. "But that doesn't make you like him any better.
