Quote context

- Weren't you frightened?

- Frightened? You are talking to a man who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe. I was petrified.

- Times being what they were, I accepted the job retaining my balloon against the advent of a quick getaway. Ha, ha.

- And in that balloon, my dear Dorothy, you and I will return to the land of E Pluribus Unum.

- My friends. I mean, my friends!

(CROWD CHEERING)

- This is positively the finest exhibition ever to be shown... be that as it may.

I do believe in spooks. I do, I do, I do, I do.
