QUOTE: Kitty Packard (Jean Harlow) and Carlotta Vance (Marie Dressler) in Dinner at Eight (1933):
-- Kitty: ' I was reading a book the other day. (...) It's all about civilization or something, a nutty kind of book. Do you know that the guy said that machinery is going to take the place of every profession? '
-- Carlotta: ' Oh, dear, that's something you need never worry about .'
