Quote context

[...]

- Look. In a little while we're gonna hold an auction sale at Cocoanut Manor, the suburb terrible... uh, beautiful.

- You must come over. There's gonna be entertainment, sandwiches and the auction. If you don't like auctions, we can play contract.

- Here it is. Cocoanut Manor, 42 hours from Times Square by railroad. 1600 miles as the crow flies, 1800 as the horseflies.

- There you are, Cocoanut Manor glorifying the American sewer and the Florida sucker.

- Why, it's the most exclusive residential district in Florida. Nobody lives there.

- And the climate... Ask me about the climate, I dare you.

- Very well. How...

- I'm glad you brought it up.

- Our motto is, Cocoanut Beach... no snow, no ice and no business.

- Do you know that Florida is the greatest state in the Union?

- Is it?

- Take its climate. No, we took that. Take its fruits, take the alligator pears. Take all the alligator pears and keep 'em. See if I care.

- Do you know how alligator pears are made?

- Haven't the slightest idea.

- There you are. That's because you've never been an alligator, and don't let it happen again.

- Do you know that it sometimes requires years to bring the pear and the alligator together? They don't like each other. No? No.

- Do you know how many alligator pears are sent out of this state every year and told not to come back?

- I don't think I do.

- All they can get a hold of.

Hello. Hello. No, we no got a no rooms. We got a nothing. We got a no customers. We got a nothing.
We're gonna have music. Music. We're gonna have music.
I've got a waiting list of 50 people at that cemetery just dying to get in. But I like you and I'm gonna shove you in ahead of all of them. I'm gonna see that you get a steady position. And if I can arrange it, it'll be horizontal.
Florida, folks... sunshine, sunshine. Perpetual sunshine all the year around. Let's get the auction started before we get a tornado.
Think of the opportunities here in Florida. Three years ago I came to Florida without a nickel in my pocket. And now I've got a nickel in my pocket.
