Bob Hope: Robert Hope Jr.

Quotes 

• Robert Hope Jr. : Where's the china?

  Dora : Oh, I don't know anything about China. I love America. I love the old American game of football, don't you?

  Robert Hope Jr. : Well, I don't...

  Dora : Don't you thrill when you think of football? The bases are full, it's the end of the third quarter, the ice is slippery, and the pigskin's bowling down the alley for a strike. The crowd roars and rises as one man. The car rounds the curve, skids, crashes! AAH HAH-HA! and the side is out in a love game!

• Mustache cup clerk : Here's a beautiful thing - a mustache cup!

  Robert Hope Jr. : Yeah, but my brother hasn't a mustache.

  Mustache cup clerk : Well, why don't you take it home and show it to him? Maybe he'd love to grow a mustache. They're lovely! My father had one once, but he disappeared for 3 days, and where do you think we found him? In the cellar with his mustache caught in Mother's dryer.
