Quotes

Oscar Levant: How long have you been working for that virtuoso of the magic violin?
Don Wilson: Well, I...
Oscar Levant: I don't mean that as a compliment. I only say a magic violin because when he plays it, everyone disappears.
Don Wilson: Well, Oscar, in answer to your question, I've been working for Jack now for, uh, well, better than twenty years, and it just swells my chest with pride to think that a man of Jack's great talent and dynamic personality would want me as a member of his cast.
Oscar Levant: Spoken like a man who hasn't saved a dime.
