Anyhow, they was too good a bargain to pass up. Oh, Bennie -- I meant 2.6 ::A :=Ruth: pass up. Oh, Bennie -- I meant to put a special note on that carton over there. 2.6 ::A :=Ruth: Honey -- I'm going to run me a tub of water up to here.. . And I'm going 2.6 ::A :=Ruth: and your brother seem to have that as a philosophy of life. Lord, that man -- done 2.6 ::A :=Walter: yourself. Damn, even the N double A C P takes a holiday sometimes!

Ruth, get Mr. Lindner a beer. 2.6 ::A :=Lindner: Well -- it's what you might call a sort of welcoming committee, I guess. I 2.6 ::A :=Lindner: I mean I want to explain to you in a certain way. 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: we have what I think is going to be a unique type of organization in American 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: out. As I say, the whole business is a matter of caring about the other fellow. 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: fellow. Anybody can see that you are a nice family of folks, hard working and 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: have much but those little homes and a dream of the kind of community they want 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: don't say we are perfect and there is a lot wrong in some of the things they want. 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: want. But you've got to admit that a man, right or wrong, has the right to want 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: to have the neighborhood he lives in a certain kind of way. And at the moment 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: people get along better, take more of a common interest in the life of the community, 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: life of the community, when they share a common background. I want you to believe 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: simply doesn't enter into it. It is a matter of the people of Clybourne Park 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: Well, now we've been having a fine conversation. I hope you'll hear me 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: we are prepared to make your family a very generous offer... 2.7 ::A :=Beneatha: Thirty pieces and not a coin less! RESP = Walter. Yeah? 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: people, to buy the house from you at a financial gain to your family. 2.7 ::A :=Lindner: you are going to gain by moving into a neighborhood where you just aren't wanted 2.7 ::A :=Beneatha: Four o'clock. You had a caller, Mama. 2.7 ::A :=Walter: they just dying to have out there is a fine family of colored people! Ain't that 2.8 ::A :=Mama: done gone and bought your grandmother a hat? 2.8 ::A :=Travis: It's a gardening hat! Like the ladies always have 2.8 ::A :=Mama: the matter with you all! This here is a beautiful hat! I always wanted me one just 2.8 ::A :=Bobo: Could I please get a drink of water, before I tell you about 2.8 ::A :=Bobo: and Willy -- I'm sorry, Walter. I got a bad feeling about it. I got a real bad 2.8 ::A :=Bobo: I got a bad feeling about it. I got a real bad feeling about it... 2.9 ::A :=Bobo: the matter with you, Walter! When a cat take off with your money he don't leave 2.9 ::A :=Mama: -- and you -- you give it all away in a day... 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: Ah, I like the look of packing crates! A household in preparation for a journey! 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: crates! A household in preparation for a journey! It depresses some people -- but 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: What kind of a mood is this! Have I told you how deeply 3.1 ::A :=Beneatha: He made an investment! With a man even Travis wouldn't have trusted. 3.1 ::A := too steep -- and sure enough one day a kid named Rufus came down too fast and 3.1 ::A := the next time I saw Rufus he just had a little line down the middle of his face 3.1 ::A :=Beneatha: one concrete thing in the world that a human being could do. Fix up the sick, 3.1 ::A :=Beneatha: drugs. Don't you understand? It was a child's reaction to the world. I thought 3.1 ::A :=Beneatha: to all the hurts -- That's the way a child sees things -- or an idealist. 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: You sound like a French intellectual. 3.1 ::A :=Beneatha: No! I sound like a human being who just had her future taken 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: said -- about the circle. It isn't a circle -- it is simply a long line -- as 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: It isn't a circle -- it is simply a long line -- as in geometry, you know, 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: the old sense. Already, and after such a small defeat, you are worshipping desp 3.1 ::A :=Asagai: you like that. You! Your brother made a stupid, childish mistake -- and you are 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: the exceptional man who can even read a newspaper -- or who ever sees a book at 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: read a newspaper -- or who ever sees a book at all. I will go home and much of 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: long. And perhaps -- perhaps I will be a great man -- I mean perhaps I will hold 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: -- or perhaps I shall live to be a very old man, respected and esteemed 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: -- that they always will be. And that such a thing as my own death will be an advance? 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: I have a bit of a suggestion. 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: I have a bit of a suggestion. 3.2 ::A :=Asagai: that -- you have only been away for a day... 3.2 ::A :=Beneatha: -- himself! There he is -- Symbol of a Rising Class! Entrepreneur! Titan of the 3.2 ::A :=Beneatha: bad to him? No -- I told him he was a sweet boy and full of dreams and everything 3.2 ::A :=Mama: Well -- ain't it a mess in here, though? I guess we all better 3.2 ::A :=Mama: for that too. Lord, ever since I was a little girl, I always remembers people 3.2 ::A :=Mama: You needs to slow down and see life a little more like it is. Just slow down 3.2 ::A :=Mama: home -- 'Lord, that Lena Eggleston is a high-minded thing. She'll get her due one 3.2 ::A :=Ruth: can still move -- the notes ain't but a hundred and twenty-five a month. We got 3.2 ::A :=Ruth: ain't but a hundred and twenty-five a month. We got four grown people in this 3.2 ::A :=Ruth: -- I'll work -- I'll work twenty hours a day in all the kitchens in Chicago -- I'll 3.3 ::A :=Mama: do to fix this place up some. I seen a second-hand bureau over on Maxwell Street 3.3 ::A :=Mama: need some new handles on it and then a little varnish and then it look like something 3.3 ::A :=Walter: Made a call. 3.3 ::A :=Walter: come on over to the show. Gonna put on a show for the man. Just what he wants to 3.3 ::A :=Walter: today. You all want everybody to carry a flag and spear and sing some marching songs, 3.3 ::A :=Walter: -- he'll find himself sitting in a dungeon, locked in forever -- and the takers 3.3 ::A :=Walter: is the smartest -- and it don't make a damn bit of difference how. 3.3 ::A :=Mama: let nobody pay 'em no money that was a way of telling us we wasn't fit to walk 3.3 ::A :=Walter: pearls in this world. I tell you I am a man -- and I think my wife should wear 3.3 ::A :=Walter: Fine! -- Going to feel fine -- a man... 3.3 ::A :=Beneatha: That is not a man. That is nothing but a toothless r 3.3 ::A :=Beneatha: That is not a man. That is nothing but a toothless rat. 3.4 ::A :=Mama: he is today? Yes? What you tell him a minute ago? That he wasn't a man? Yes? 3.4 ::A :=Mama: tell him a minute ago? That he wasn't a man? Yes? You give him up for me?
