Duck Soup Quote
Rufus T. Firefly : [ to Trentino ] Now, how about lending this country twenty million dollars, you old skinflint?
Ambassador Trentino : Twenty million dollars is a lot of money. I'd have to take that up with my Minister of Finance.
Rufus T. Firefly : Well, in the meantime, could you let me have twelve dollars until payday?
Ambassador Trentino : Twelve dollars?
Rufus T. Firefly : Don't be scared, you'll get it back. I'll give you my personal note for ninety days. If it isn't paid by then, you can... keep the note.
