Quote from Diane in They Called Me Mayday
Diane: You must have a lot of close and dear friends in the publishing world. Dick Cavett: A few. Diane: Wouldn't it be a great thrill for you to run across a budding poetic genius? Dick Cavett: Only if I were wearing cleats. Diane: [laughs] You don't know how I welcome your sense of humor in this desert of banality. Dick Cavett: I wouldn't call this a desert. Diane: No? Dick Cavett: No, a desert would be an easier place to get a drink. Diane: Oh, yes. What can I get you?
