“First sensible remark all night,” said Charlotte.”

“Is the glass half full, or half empty? It depends on whether you're pouring, or drinking.”

“Oh darling, let's stay up all night
Drinking whisky, telling stories, I can keep you satisfied

We’ve stood up and said we’re not going to fight reactionary pigs and reactionary state’s attorneys like this and reactionary state’s attorneys like Hanrahan with any other reactions on our part. We’re going to fight their reactions with all of us people getting together and having an international proletarian revolution.”
