Maury Chaykin: Nero Wolfe

Quotes 

• Nero Wolfe : [to Susan]  You are either a poisonous cockatrice or a witling, and you have brought Mr. Goodwin to a desperate pass!

  Archie Goodwin : [interrupting]  You said this was my affair!

  Nero Wolfe : Yes, it was... until it threatened me.

  [to Susan] 

  Nero Wolfe : Miss McLeod, I cannot function properly, let alone comfortably, without Archie Goodwin. I depend on him. Because of you, he is in grave jeopardy.

  [to Archie] 

  Nero Wolfe : Archie, from now on, this is our joint affair, by your leave.

• Inspector Cramer : When did you know that Kenneth Faber had shoved you out and taken Sue over?

  Archie Goodwin : Your Honor, I object to the question, on the grounds that it's insulting, impertinent, and disgusticulous! Because it assumes that I am shovable. Not only that, but also I can be shoved from a place where I have never been!

  Nero Wolfe : Objection sustained. You will rephrase the question, Mister Cramer.
