Paul:
Harry's a menace. Billie:
He's not so bad. I seen worse. Paul:
Has he ever thought of anyone but himself? Billie:
Who does? Paul:
Millions of people, Billie. The whole history of the world is a story of a struggle between the selfish and the unselfish. Billie:
I can hear you. Paul:
All that's bad around us is bred by selfishness. Sometimes selfishness can even get to be a - a cause, an organized force, even a government. And then it's called fascism. Can you understand that? Billie:
Sort of. Paul:
Well, think about it. Billie:
You're crazy about me, aren't ya? Paul:
Yes. Billie:
That's why you're so mad at Harry. Paul:
Listen, I hate his life, what he does, what he stands for - not him. He just doesn't know any better. Billie:
I go for you too

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:09.197
- He's not so bad as you think he is.
- Hello.
00:00:10.438 --> 00:00:12.668
Hello, Harry.
We were just talking about you.
00:00:12.074 --> 00:00:14.674
Yeah? That ain't
what I pay you for.
00:00:14.742 --> 00:00:17.404
She knows enough about me already.
Too much, in fact.
00:00:17.479 --> 00:00:19.413
- Jim phone?
- No.
00:00:19.481 --> 00:00:21.881
- I had a date with him.
- What'd you find out about Tom Paine?
00:00:21.095 --> 00:00:24.578
- He was quite a fella.
- Where was he born?
00:00:24.652 --> 00:00:27.314
London, or England.
Someplace like that.
00:00:27.388 --> 00:00:30.186
What do you mean, London or England?
That's the same thing.
00:00:30.258 --> 00:00:32.488
- It is?
- London's in England. London's a city.
00:00:32.056 --> 00:00:34.653
- England's a whole country.
- I forgot.
00:00:34.729 --> 00:00:37.197
- Oh, brother, you've got patience.
- Take it easy.
00:00:37.265 --> 00:00:39.256
How can anybody
get to be so dumb?
00:00:39.334 --> 00:00:43.771
- We can't all know everything.
- Who's Tom Paine, for instance?
00:00:43.838 --> 00:00:46.005
- What?
- You heard me. Tom Paine.
00:00:46.574 --> 00:00:49.997
- What do I care who he is?
- I know.
00:00:49.177 --> 00:00:52.874
If I wanted to know who he is, I'd know.
I just don't care.
00:00:52.947 --> 00:00:54.881
Go on, go on.
Don't let me butt in.
00:00:54.949 --> 00:00:56.883
Which of his hooks
did you like best?
00:00:56.951 --> 00:00:59.715
I didn't read by him yet,
only about him.
00:00:59.787 --> 00:01:02.654
- But I made a list.
- Who's Rabbit Maranville?
00:01:02.724 --> 00:01:04.715
- Who?
- Rabbit Maranville.
00:01:04.792 --> 00:01:07.488
- I didn't know any Rabbit.
- Think you're so smart, huh?
00:01:07.562 --> 00:01:10.554
He used to play shortstop
for the Braves, didn't he?
00:01:10.001 --> 00:01:13.465
What are you, some kind
of genius or something?
00:01:13.535 --> 00:01:15.901
I hire and fire geniuses
every day.
00:01:15.097 --> 00:01:18.768
- I'm sure you do. Where's the list?
- Here.
00:01:18.084 --> 00:01:21.001
Well, suppose you start with
The Age of Reason.
00:01:21.976 --> 00:01:24.001
- The Age of Reason?
- Mm-hmm. Then next--
00:01:24.712 --> 00:01:26.839
- Who's Willy Hoppe?
- National billiard champion.
00:01:26.001 --> 00:01:28.849
- And it's pronounced "hoppy."
- That's what I said.
00:01:28.917 --> 00:01:31.681
- But I didn't ask you, I asked her.
- Sorry.
00:01:31.753 --> 00:01:34.994
- Where were we?
- The Age of Reason.
00:01:34.155 --> 00:01:36.001
Yes. Next, The Rights of Man.
00:01:36.001 --> 00:01:38.282
- The Rights of Man.
- I think that'll--
00:01:38.999 --> 00:01:40.224
What's a peninsula?
00:01:40.295 --> 00:01:43.389
You think you're so smart.
What's a peninsula?
00:01:43.464 --> 00:01:44.999
- It's a--
- Not you, her.
00:01:45.001 --> 00:01:48.001
