• Pat Pratt : Well, Mr. Mayor!

  Ezekiel Cobb : Good evening, Miss Pratt. Isn't this terrible!

  Pat Pratt : What?

  Ezekiel Cobb : What? I've got to be mayor!

  Pat Pratt : Oh, well its all a circus anyway. And every circus must have its clown.

• Ezekiel Cobb : Why is it that all American girls are so lacking in individuality?

  Pat Pratt : What?

  Ezekiel Cobb : Well, they all look alike. Big-eyed. And pastied-faced. And, well, one exactly like the other.

  Pat Pratt : Eh, how interesting.

  Ezekiel Cobb : Yes, and furthermore, they seem to lack that sense of inferiority that a woman should have in the presence of a man.

  Pat Pratt : Oh, they do?

  Ezekiel Cobb : Yes, I'm disappointed. I doubt whether I shall be able to find an American girl that will make me a suitable wife.
