[spoiler]Today's quote:
Ep #76 (1966) - Liz - 'Sell Collinwood? You MUST be joking.'
From "#0075/0076: Robservations 07/13/01: No More Pretense"
You'll never find anyone else who would want to buy this place! Roger argues with Liz. Burke smokes a cigarette. Collinwood is not for sale, says Liz. You yourself have said it's dreary, drafty and desolate, Roger reminds her--why not get rid of it? Sell Collinwood?--you must be joking, insists Liz. I am not joking, says Roger, the money we would get, we could get a place much more practical, a place we would really enjoy. Out of the question, says Liz, I can't imagine this place belonging to anyone but a Collins--this isn't the kind of place you buy and sell--our great-grandfather didn't buy it, he built it himself, for his family--and that's the reason why I kept it--in hopes David would someday feel the same way I do. I'm very sure that David would feel the way I feel about it, says Roger--I would be willing for the place to burn down tomorrow! Burke looks pleased. Then why not sell it to me? asks Burke. Whether Roger likes it or not is beside the point, says Liz, I'm sure you understand MY feelings about Collinwood, and how you must have known I would never consider selling it--I don't even know why you asked!
The Robservations references the quote perfectly...
And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Burke - 'Well, I didn't give them away. I didn't sell them or lend them, therefore, they MUST have been stolen') was back on December 31st of 2020.
And Liz does indeed say the second "must" in the excerpt, so that line may show up in the slideshow sooner or later...
