Quote from Dr. John Sturgis

Meemaw: This is delicious, but you were not kidding about the spice. I'm about to break a sweat here.

Meemaw: So what does the runny nose do for me?
Dr. John Sturgis: It allows me to, uh, gallantly offer you my handkerchief.
Meemaw: You are such a gentleman.
Dr. John Sturgis: When I was younger, I read a book on etiquette. That's how I know that if I ever have an audience at the Vatican, I should wear evening attire or a sack coat.

Dr. John Sturgis: Thank you.
