Uncle Charlie: The cities are full of women, middle-aged widows, husbands, dead, husbands who've spent their lives making fortunes, working and working. And then they die and leave their money to their wives, their silly wives. And what do the wives do, these useless women? You see them in the hotels, the best hotels, every day by the thousands, drinking the money, eating the money, losing the money at bridge, playing all day and all night, smelling of money, proud of their jewelry but of nothing else, horrible, faded, fat, greedy women... Are they human or are they fat, wheezing animals, hmm? And what happens to animals when they get too fat and too old?

The cities, it's different. The cities are full of women, middle-aged widows, husbands dead, husbands who've spent their lives making fortunes, working and working, and then they die and leave their money to their wives, their silly wives. And what do the wives do, these useless women? You see them in the hotels, the best hotels every day by the thousands, drinking the money, eating the money, losing the money at bridge, playing all day and all night, smelling of money. Proud of their jewelry, but of nothing else. Horrible, faded, fat, greedy women. But they're alive! They're human beings! Are they? Are they, Charlie? Are they human, or are they fat, wheezing animals, huh? And what happens to animals when they get too fat and too old? Well, I seem to be making my speech right here. Well, for heaven's sake, don't talk about women like that in front of my club! You'll be tarred and feathered. The idea. And that nice Mrs. Potter's going to be there, too. She was asking me about you. The Greenes are bringing her here to the little party I'm having for you after the lecture. Joe, it's Herbert. He always comes when we're eating. Good evening, Mrs. Newton. Good evening, Mr. Oakley. Good evening. Well, Herb, how's your mother? Oh, she's just middling. Had your dinner? Oh, I had mine an hour ago. You folks are getting pretty stylish, having dinner later every evening. Joe. Huh? Joe, I picked some mushrooms before dinner. You don't say. Mushrooms mean anything to you, Joe? Well, I eat them on my steak when I'm out and the meat's not good enough as it is.
