:08:02
S- Sit down, Mrs. Benson.
:08:07
Oh! It was what you said about
my wanting to get rid of my money...
:08:10
like exorcising some evil spirit.
:08:12
- Ah, yes.
- Dr. Steffanson.
:08:14
- Mm-hmm?
- I think I may be some kind of a witch.
:08:17
Oh-ho-ho. Come, come now,
Mrs. Benson.
:08:19
This is the 19th centur...
er, uh, 20th century.
:08:21
No! Really!
Every man whose life I touch withers.
:08:27
Really?
Uh, Mrs...
:08:31
Mrs. Benson, please,
just turn over and... and try to relax.
:08:38
Go right ahead.
:08:42
Well, I was born Louisa May Foster...
:08:46
in the small town of Crawleyville, Ohio.
:08:50
Oh, I can't understand it.
I never wanted money.
:08:53
All I ever wanted
was to lead a simple life...
:08:56
with one man to love
and to love me.
:08:59
A simple life
somewhere in a little cottage...
:09:03
that's all I ever wanted
ever since I was a little girl
with my mother and father.
:09:07
Oh, your mother.
What was your mother like?
:09:09
Mother? Well...
:09:12
Mother kept Daddy and me clean,
neat as a pin, and took us to church
every Sunday.
:09:17
So now I say unto you,
love thy neighbor as thyself.
:09:21
'Tis better to give than to receive.
:09:24
Money is the root of all evil.
:09:28
Mother even had embroidered
these very sentiments...
:09:32
on samplers
for our living room at home.
:09:34
But we were poor, and Mother
found it hard to live up to these ideas.
:09:38
Good day, Mrs. Jenkins.
:09:40
Sherman, did you see EmilyJenkins?
:09:43
That slob smothered in a mink cape.
:09:45
I hate her guts!
:09:48
Look what I've got.
:09:50
Her husband was a shipping clerk
15 years ago, same as you.
:09:53
Now look at him. Look at you. Where's
your drive? Where's your ambition?
:09:57
That's what counts in this world...
Success! Money!
