Janet Walker

Well, now, you don't really approve of murder, Rupert? If I may?

You may... and I do. Think of the problems it would solve: unemployment, poverty, standing in line for theatre tickets...

Rupert only publishes books *he* likes... usually philosophy.

Janet Walker

Oh. Small print, big words, no sales.

Rupert's extremely radical. Do you know that he selects his books on the assumption that people not only can read but actually can think?

Janet Walker

Who is this Rupert?

Kenneth Lawrence
[to Brandon Shaw]

He used to tell you the weirdest things, didn't he?

I suppose Kenneth means Rupert's impatience with social conventions. For example, he thinks murder is a crime for most men but--

a privilege for the few.
