Quotes 

  • [a middle-aged, taciturn couple is brought by Michael before the Committee; all three of them talk in a very cold and impassive tone] 

    Mez Smith : Fanny and Jurdan MacBurnatt.

    Dr. Moore : Why are they here?

    Mez Smith : Lack of respect. Wrong attitude. Failure to obey authority.

    Dr. Moore : Lectures?

    Mez Smith : Three.

    Dr. Moore : Cut-and-dry, then.

    Mez Smith : I'd say so.

    Lou Craddock : Any reason to be easy?

    Mez Smith : [shakes her head]  No.

    Lou Craddock : [to the MacBurnatts]  We find it almost impossible to believe that you have ignored several of our warnings by us to conform to the rules that are vital to the continued growth and well-being of our beloved Topeka, but you did. Defiance of this Committee, duly elected and ordained by the people, will not be tolerated. The Farm, both of them. Now, how'd the last Farms go, Mez?

    Mez Smith : Uh, cancer I think. Oh, no, no, no, wait...

    [gets up and opens up a book by the podium] 

    Mez Smith : Let me see. I have it down here. It was an accident with farm machinery. That's what it was. Larry and Linda Lacy, March 17 of this year.

    Lou Craddock : Let's make these... heart attacks. Yeah, grief from the Committee. Doc will do the eulogy. Services at Lakeside Methodist, the usual. And may God have mercy on your souls.
