Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Henry Brougham:
[the meeting with Mrs. Hamilton has just concluded]
What a ghastly afternoon. What a ghastly woman. And I trust she understood that I have no intention of being strangled by her purse strings.
Julia Brougham:
Oh, she did, and I was proud of you.
Henry Brougham:
I had a most un-Christian impulse to take those blueprints and give her a good whack over the... mink coat.
Julia Brougham:
I thought you stood up to her magnificently.
Henry Brougham:
I appreciate your appreciation, but what about my cathedral?
Julia Brougham:
May I make a suggestion, Henry? Why not postpone the cathedral? At least forget about it until after Christmas.
Henry Brougham:
Impossible. The house of God cannot just be put off. This cathedral must rise. Plenty of other rich people in this town, and if I had to enlist their financial enthusiasm, then I shall have to take advantage of their Yuletide spirit.
Julia Brougham:
Oh, I can see it all now, the McWhithers, the Hornes, the Van Deusens. The luncheons, the committee meetings. And you, you there, flattering them, kowtowing to them, *begging* them.
Henry Brougham:
It's got to be done.
Julia Brougham:
Oh, Henry, if you could see your poor, harassed face.
Henry Brougham:
Well, you haven't done very much to help it!
