Cora: I would not wish to be too familiar with some of your clients, Mr. Harding. Mr. Harding: Why? Cora: Well, Mr. Harding, there was this one client of mine who called himself my friend -- which he was not. Mr.

Harding: Am I not your friend? Cora: No, sir! I will be perfectly frank with you -- you are nothing but a common rascal and a thief. Mr. Harding: [sings] My love is like the red, red rose / That grows in the mornin' dew, / My love is like the red, red rose / That grows in the mornin' dew; / And she is like the sweetest, sweetest rose / That blows upon my bower; / An' she's like the sweetest, sweetest rose / That blows upon my bower; an' I am like a massy ballerina that dances on de floor-- [applause] --an' neber staggers, an' neber falls; an' I am like a massy ballerina that dances on de floor--an' neber staggers, an' neber falls." Cora: You are nothing but a common rascal and a thief! Mr. Harding: And you are nothing but a common old woman with no more wit than a spider!
