Ferdinand Schumann-Heink: Henry

Quotes 

• Helen Faraday, aka Helen Jones : [singing]  Hot voodoo, I'm aflame, I'm really not to blame, That African tempo is meaner than mean, Hot voodoo makes me brave, I want to misbehave, I'm beginning to feel like an African queen, Those drums bring out, The devil inside me, I need some great big angel to guide me, Hot voodoo gets me wild, Oh, fireman, save this child, I'm going to blazes, I want to be bad!

  Nick Townsend : [clapping and talking]  Not bad, eh, Henry?

  Henry : I should say not.

  Nick Townsend : Where'd you dig her up, O'Connor?

  Dan O'Connor : How do you like her, boys?

  Nick Townsend : Pretty good.

• Henry : Mind if I go along, too, Charlie?

  Charlie Blaine : I knew you'd horn in.

• Charlie Blaine : How about ordering something to drink? What'll you have, Miss Jones?

  Helen Faraday, aka Helen Jones : I don't drink.

  Henry : Smoke?

  Helen Faraday, aka Helen Jones : No, thank you.

  Charlie Blaine : You won't last very long in this place.

  Dan O'Connor : Why won't she?
