- [Sturm retells the story of the murder he committed]
- Professor Sturm: ...as I said, he was so big, it seems unfair I should have gotten so little money out of him.
- Dannie O'Neill: Don't you ever get tired of talking about the guy you croaked?
- Professor Sturm: No.
- Dannie O'Neill: Don't it ever bother you?
- Professor Sturm: No. All that bothers me was a certain carelessness I had shown. I went to his funeral. It wasn't sentiment, you understand, it was curiosity. I was curious to see what they could do about that hole in his head.
