Quote context

- Be Lux lovely for the holidays ahead.

- We pause now for station identification. This is the CBS radio network.

- For days now, the journey of the African Queen has been halted.

- Across the breadth of the river, like a towering, living wall, is a jungle of grass and reeds...

- An endless morass through which a thousand different channels twist and turn. And, somewhere among them, Rose and Charlie are hopelessly lost.

- Charlie, please. Let me pole for a while.

- Aw, it's no use, Rosie. All the channels we've lost, all the squirming and turning we've done...

- This river's crazy. Crazy as I am!

- Sorry, old girl.

- Well, the only thing that will put the roses back in our cheeks is to get out of these reeds.
