Lenny Bruce
- Miriam 'Midge' Maisel: Do you love it?
- Lenny Bruce: Do I love what?
- Miriam 'Midge' Maisel: Comedy. Stand-up. Do you love it?
- Lenny Bruce: Seriously?
- [Midge nods]
- Lenny Bruce: Well, I've been doing it awhile. Ok, let's put it like this: If there was anything else in the entire world that I could possibly do to earn a living, I would. Anything! I'm talking dry cleaners to the Klan, crippled kid portrait painters, slaughterhouse attendant. If someone said to me, "Leonard, you can either eat a guy's head, or do two weeks at the Copa," I'd say "Pass the fucking salt." It's a terrible, terrible job. It should not exist. Like cancer. And God.
- Miriam 'Midge' Maisel: But do you love it?
- [Lenny shrugs, grins sheepishly, and walks away]
- Miriam 'Midge' Maisel: Yeah. He loves it.
