Quote context

[...]

- The opening of the convention is only hours off.

- The delegates are pouring into the ball park with lunch baskets, banners and petitions asking John Doe not to jump off any roof.

- No matter how you look at it, it's still a phenomenal movement.

- These John Does or 'hoy polloi', as you've heard people call them, have been laughed at and ridiculed.

- But here they are gay and happy, having traveled 1000s of miles,

- Their expenses paid by their neighbors to come to pay homage to their hero, John Doe.

- In these days of wars and bombings, it's a hopeful sign that a simple idea like this can sweep the country.

- An idea based on friendliness, on giving and not taking, on helping your neighbor and asking nothing in return.

- And if a thing like this can happen, don't let any of your grumbling friends tell you that humanity is falling apart.

- This is John B. Hughes signing off now, returning you to our main studio until 9 o'clock when the convention officially opens.

- John, come in.

Top rated lines from this movie

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.

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.

You know, I had a crazy dream last night. It was about you. I dreamt I was your father.
