Sen. Ted Donnolly:
[speaking to Ruth Benton in her office]
I have a great respect for you - you're a fighter. I used to be a Golden Gloves boy myself in the old days. They taught me that when the odds were against a good fighter to cover up, if you wanted to keep on your feet. Because even though you lose the decision, it's better than a knockout. Sen. Ted Donnolly:
Good morning, Mrs. Benton. [shakes her hand and walks out]
