Quotes
-
Doctor : [after examining 'The Mountain' McClintock] The Mountain and I will retire this week.
Maish Rennick : What do you mean?
Doctor : No more. He's through.
Maish Rennick : Hold on, I could let him rest up, I got nothing scheduled for him!
Doctor : He can rest up for the rest of his life.
Maish Rennick : What are you talking about? He spends fourteen years in the ring, suddenly he gets a little cut, and you want to put him out to pasture?
Doctor : Suddenly? It doesn't go fourteen years and then 'suddenly'. It's never one cut, it's fourteen years of cuts!
