Joan Crawford Quotes:
Vienna: If you remember, McGyvers gave me 24 hours to close. I drew out my own money, paid off my boys... and I'm closed. You can't buy a drink or turn a card. I'm sitting here in my own house, minding my own business, playing my own piano. I don't think you can make a crime out of that.
Lynn Markham: I'd like to ask you to stay and have a drink, but I'm afraid you might accept.
