Quote from Jerry in The Cheever Letters

Jerry: Right after we get off the phone, then you go and tell her that?! Well, of course she knows it was me who complained! Now I'm responsible for this woman's quitting. Oh, this is unbelievable!
Elaine: I know! I screwed up. It's all my fault. Would you call her?
Jerry: Oh, dial the number. How could you do this?
Elaine: I was just trying to help you.
Jerry: Oh, just trying to help me. [on the phone] Hello? Sandra? Hi, uh, this is Jerry Seinfeld. Listen, I- I just want to tell you, there's been a terrible misunderstanding. See, I told Elaine that, uh, it was a real treat talking to you on the phone, and she thought I was being sarcastic, you know, 'cause I'm a comedian and all. She thought I meant "Yeah, it was a real treat talking to her on the phone.", you know. But I was really being sincere. No, of course I like you. Tonight? Um, uh, hold on a second. [whispers to Elaine] Now she wants to have a drink with me. [Elaine mouths "Just go.", Jerry mumbles] Yeah, I think I can. Um, yeah, I know where that is. Okay, uh, I'll see you there. Okay, bye. [hangs up] Now I gotta have a drink with her.
