Howard Armstrong:
[looking at the Chicago Picasso]
I'd hate to wake up anywhere and see that. You know, night time, day time, Summer time, Winter, any other time. You see, I'm a realist. If you are going to an artist, paint somethin' that looks like somethin' at least you can relate to. That - I don't know. It's just like somethin' that jumped out of the Twilight Zone. That's the way I feel about it. A whole lot of money, a big bunch of bull shit went down the drain. You know what I mean? You could pick that up most anywhere. You know, it may not be quite as big as that, just put it right together and pile it on deeper. I don't think the people who got it - they know what the hell they were doin' in the first place
