Douglas E. Richards Quote
Unless you truly believed in something to the deepest depth of your being, as did Delamater, all men were whores in the end. There was an old joke that had always struck Delamater as defining of the human species. A man asks a woman if she would sleep with him for ten million dollars. She agrees. He then asks if she would sleep with him for a dollar. She is aghast. What kind of woman do you take me for? she asks. To that, the man responds, We have established what you are, madam. Now we’re just haggling over the price.
