"If it's wet to-day then it's fine to-morrow, and if a concern ain't buying goods now all right. They'll buy 'em later on. Ain't it?
"You got the nerve to stand there and tell me this here garment is freaky like a masquerade costume. Schon gut, Abe. From now on I wash myself of the whole thing. I am through, Abe.
