Quotes
-
Station Agent : I've been married 30 years, and I don't look for any outside trouble. I, I could write a book about the goin's and comin's here if I had a mind to, but I just do my job and I don't see a thing. More free livin' goin' on in these parts these days than you can shake a stick at. Money does it. New York money, mostly! Society people and artists and... I never saw the world so full of artists and free livin'. Uh... you an artist?
George Steele : Not exactly.
Station Agent : Bad bunch, artists. Yeah.

George Steele : [insistently] Where'd they take me? Where'd they take this man? Where'd they go?
Station Agent : Well, they put him in the car, as nearly as I remember.
George Steele : [insistently] What kind of a car?
Station Agent : I couldn't say. I haven't been able to tell one car from another since 1924. They all look alike now, the way they make 'em... Window's closed!
