“It's been so long that I haven't seen your face I try to be strong.”

“I've been on the left of the Party since I joined it about 1934 and I haven't seen much reason for altering…I have always been a strong libertarian both inside the Labour Party and outside…what I want to seek to do over a period of course is to establish a Socialist society.”

“It's been a long long time since I've memorized your face.”

“I certainly haven't stuck my face in the wilderness.”

“I have strong feelings for you, I just haven't decided if their positive or negitive yet. A”

“I need you to be clever, Bean. I need you to think of solutions to problems we haven't seen yet. I want you to try things that no one has ever tried because they're absolutely stupid.”

“I don't want your pork chops
I don't want your turnip greens
I think that I'll pass up the cornbread
'Cause a piece of watermelon is what I need

And I'm a watermelon man”
