John: No, no, no. Look here. You see? Apparently, it was Melville's old storage basement.
Sam: Uh-huh, uh-huh.
John: Don't. Don't get alarmed. I have no designs on them. I just mentioned it, because I thought it was amusing.

John: Of course! We're neighbors. Neighbors help each other.
Sam: Yeah, well, of c- Yeah, of course they do. Of course they... You know, I got an idea. Why don't you let me help you put this duck mat right down at the foot of the stairs?
John: Well, that's very thoughtful of you, Sam.

Quote from John Allen Hill

John: Well, Mr. Malone, since we're going to be neighbors, I brought a little gift for your tavern.
