- Richard Goddard: [answering the phone] Hello.
- Emma Riley: Hello. I'm calling from Boston about your ad in The Globe.
- Richard Goddard: Oh, yes.
- Emma Riley: It says woman wanted, live in. Why are you advertising in Boston when you live in New Haven?
- Richard Goddard: Actually I grew up with an Irish nanny. She was kind and generous and pleasant to be with.
- Emma Riley: Are you married?
- Richard Goddard: I'm widowed. I have a son in his twenties who's uh... he's going through some difficulties. He lives at home, and we need someone to help put our house in order.
- Monica: Why do I have to go to the most expensive school in the country when all I want to do is paint? But I don't need a degree. Did Rembrandt have a degree? Did Van Gogh? I ask you, did Grandma Moses have a degree? You know what you are? You're middle-aged, middle-class, middle-west bourgeoisie.
