Quote context

[...]

- Good night. Good night, John.

- Have you ever been married? Well, sure you have.

- That's pretty silly. Guess you must think I'm kinda batty. I guess I better be going.

- John... my husband said: I love you. Will you marry me?

- He did?

- What happened?

- I married him.

- Yeah, that's what I mean. It was easy as all that?

- Yeah, but look... I love Ann, and it's gonna be hard for me to say it 'cause... she's so wonderful and the best I ever was was a bush league pitcher.

- And I think she's in love with another man, the one she made up. The real John Doe.

- That's pretty tough competition.

- I bet he'd know how to say it.

- But me, I get up to it and around and in back of it, but I never get right to it. You know what I mean?
