Quote context

[...]

- I can't go around handing out private offices and secretaries on the strength of a practical joke, that I personally consider far from funny... Yes sir!

- It'll be kind of hard to face that gang tomorrow from back of the old desk.

- It would be just as hard to face from in here, if you didn't belong here. Uneasy lies the head that...

- He does belong in here, Mr. Baxter.

- Now, what is the joke this time?

- He belongs in here, because he thinks he belongs in here.

- Oh, that's all very deep dish and high fallutin, but far from practical.

- It is practical. It's the most practical idea you ever had!

- He belongs in here because he thinks he has ideas. He belongs in here until he proves himself or fails.

- And then somebody else belongs in here until he proves himself or fails, and then somebody else after him, and so on and so on for always!

Top rated lines from this movie

And while I'm on the subject, I just want to tell you that of all the groups of fat heads, that I've ever had the misfortune to gaze upon, you take the log pail.
Pick your winner, send him a check, and tell him to go soak his head!
But since we do everything here in a highly non-commercial basis, I merely take pleasure in giving you this small check written out with my heart's blood! And that's all there is too it, here.
Is it good luck or bad luck when a black cat crosses your path? -Miss, I always say that depends on what happens afterwards.
Contests! What good are contests anyway? Why they make you a million enemies. And all they prove is you've got too much money in the first place.
