Did I know you at Princeton, Tom? I don't think I did.
Tom Ripley
I...
Dickie Greenleaf
I mean it as a compliment . You've got such great taste. Most of the thugs at Princeton have tasted everything and had no taste. I used to say , "The Cream of America: Rich and thick." Freddie's the perfect example.
Tom Ripley
Well... then, I'll take it as a compliment!
Dickie Greenleaf
Ha! I knew it! Marge and I had a bet! Do you even like jazz, or was that just for my benefit?
Tom Ripley
I've gotten to like it.
Dickie Greenleaf
Yes!
Tom Ripley
I've gotten to like everything about the way you live. It's one big love affair.
