Maury: What is a gentleman, anyway?
Anthony: A man who never has pins under his coat lapel.
Maury: Nonsense! A man's social rank is determined by the amount of bread he eats in a sandwich.
Dick: He's a man who prefers the first edition of a book to the last edition of a newspaper.
Rachel: A man who never gives an impersonation of a dope-fiend.
Maury: An American who can fool an English butler into thinking he's one.
Muriel: A man who comes from a good family and went to Yale or Harvard or Princeton, and has money and dances well, and all that.
