Harold Lloyd: Burleigh 'Tiger' Sullivan

Quotes 

• Burleigh Sullivan : Mr. Sloan, what is color?

  Gabby Sloan : What's what?

  Burleigh Sullivan : Color. That stuff you was talkin' about on the radio. That I got!

  Gabby Sloan : That's what gets a guys name in the newspapers.

  Burleigh Sullivan : Like what, for instance?

  Gabby Sloan : Like what? What?

  Burleigh Sullivan : I mean like who, for instance.

  Gabby Sloan : It's what makes a man stand out from a crowd. It makes him talked about. Dizzy Dean's got it. Bobby Jones has got it. Amelia Earhart's got it.

  Burleigh Sullivan : And Mae West?

  Gabby Sloan : She's got it in a big way!

• Burleigh Sullivan : [Burleigh calling on the phone in Polly's apartment to get a doctor for his horse, Agnes]  This is sure nice of you.

  Polly Pringle : That's all right.

  Burleigh Sullivan : [on the phone]  Hello, hello? Is this Kinney? This is Burleigh. Something's happened to Agnes. Yeah. She's lying in the gutter.

  [Polly displays shock, as she doesn't know Agnes is a horse] 

  Burleigh Sullivan : Uh, well, she won't get up. Her tongue's hangin' out a foot!

  [Polly even more shocked] 

  Burleigh Sullivan : Thirsty? Oh, she couldn't be, she's had plenty to drink. What she's got's a bellyache. Yeah, you better get her an ambulance. Uh, this is 56, Lotus Apartments. Yes.

  [hangs up phone] 

  Polly Pringle : You better bring the lady up here until...

  Burleigh Sullivan : Oh, but she's not a lady.

  Polly Pringle : I didn't think she was... but if she's sick it doesn't make a difference what kind of woman she is.

  Burleigh Sullivan : Oh, but Agnes- she's just an old horse.

  Polly Pringle : Oh, that's all.

  Burleigh Sullivan : Well, thank you very much. Uh, goodbye.

  [opens door and walks into a closet] 

• Spider Schultz : [Spider comes up behind Burleigh, who's feeding sugar cubes to his milk delivery horse]  Hey, you. The boss wants to see you, you're comin' with me.

  [pulls on Burleigh's arm] 

  Burleigh Sullivan : No sir, I got work to do.

  Spider Schultz : [still pulling on Burleigh's arm]  Come on.

  Burleigh Sullivan : Anyway, I'm not going up there again... anyway.

  Spider Schultz : What's that?

  Burleigh Sullivan : Once bitten, twice shy.

  Spider Schultz : Huh? Gimme that once again.

  Burleigh Sullivan : I don't chew my cabbage twice.

  [Burleigh starts to walk away but Spider slaps him on the shoulder and grabs his arm] 

  Spider Schultz : So you startin' that again, huh?

  [the horse grabs the back of Spider's coat, swings him around and then shoves him] 

  Spider Schultz : Hey!

  [Spider puts up his dukes] 

  Spider Schultz : Two against one, huh? I'll show yuh.

  [goes after Burleigh]
