I'm really not sick, you know." "Well, it looks like it'll take more than a blizzard to take you out. You're one of those fellows who gets well in spite of, rather than because of us medicos.

"I'm glad to see you've made such a quick recovery. But you two were deep in a discussion don't let me interrupt it." "I was just talking about the dam we're building up the river," Kane replied. "I can talk about it for hours, when I get started." "I'm sure I'd enjoy hearing about it," Emily laughed. "You know all a doctor's wife hears about are patients and babies and aches and pains.
