"We won't weaken."
"Not an iota. If they come bothering you, refer them to your agent. Tell them I've got the thing."
"But then they'll bother you."
"My dear child, mine has been a long life, in the course of which I have frequently been bothered by experts. And always without effect. Bothering passes me by as the idle wind, which I respect not."
"That's Shakespeare, isn't it?"
"I shouldn't wonder. Most of the good gags are."
(from Full Moon, by Sir Pelham Wodehouse)
