Dick Quote #130

Quote from Dick in The Art of Dick

Dick: Ah, Dr. Albright. There's something different about you this morning.
Mary: I have a new blouse.
Dick: No, that's not it. And I hope you didn't pay too much for it. That's it! It's the box. What's in it?
Mary: Oh, this? Painting supplies. I'm taking a painting class. I'm not very good at it.
Dick: So, you're bad.
Mary: Well, I wouldn't say I was bad. You have to understand I have incredibly high standards and I tend to be very critical of myself. But, as an amateur, I've demonstrated quite a bit of potential.
Dick: So, you're bad.
Mary: Yeah, but art is essentially subjective. There is no good or bad.
Dick: So if you stink, you're still allowed to do it? That sounds perfect.
Mary: Are you interested? Me?
Dick: Don't be ridiculous. I was talking about Harry. Oh, you thought I was worried about being less than perfect? That's rich. [laughs]
