Towns Quotes

“The small town is passing. It was the incubator that hatched all our big men, and that's why we haven't got as many big men today as we used to have. Take every small-town-raised leader out of business and you would have nobody left running it but vice-presidents.”

“[Bad Influence]was David Koepp's first big screenplay.

"Yes, exactly," said the girl eagerly. "No, that one we haven't seen," said Pippi decidedly.”
