Put me where I can touch Forty-Second Street without over-balancing, and then you can leave me. I never thought you were such a hayseed, George. 'Don't worry, Peggy. It'll be a long time, I expect, before I go there. I've got to make my fortune first. 'Getting anywhere near the John D. class yet? 'I've still some way to go. But things are moving, I think.
