Quote context

[...]

- If anybody ever asked you what the average John Doe is like, you couldn't tell him because he's a million and one things.

- He's Mr. Big and Mr. Small. He's simple and he's wise. He's inherently honest, but he's got a streak of larceny in his heart.

- He seldom walks up to a public telephone without shoving his finger in the slot to see if somebody left a nickel there.

- He's the man the ads are written for, the fella everybody sells things to.

- He's Joe Does, the world's greatest stooge, and the world's greatest strength.

- Yes, sir... Yes, sir, we're a great family, the John Does.

- We're the meek who are... supposed to inherit the earth.

- You'll find us everywhere. We raise the crops, dig the mines, work the factories, keep the books, fly the planes, and drive the buses.

- When a cop yells stand back there, you, he means us, the John Does.

- What kind of a speech is that? Didn't you read it?

You're a nice guy, John. I like you. You're gentle. I always like gentle people. Me... I'm hard. Hard and tough. I got no use for hard people. Gotta be gentle to suit me. Like you, for instance.
Do me a favor. Go on out and get married and have a lot of babies but... stay out of the newspaper business.
Why that gold-grabbing dame would double cross her own mother for a handful of Chinese Yams.
That 50 bucks in your pocket is beginning to show up on you already.
I don't know what kind of speech you're going to write, but from the samples I've read, I don't think anybody will listen.
