"Dr. Andre Tessier: I always turn to this book. Older than all the others - by thousands of years. Ah, here we are. Proverbs, twenty-third chapter, seventh verse, "as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." "As a man thinketh in his heart." That's all that matters. Solomon was a very wise man, David. Even if he did have a thousand wives. David Talbot: That's just it, Andre. I have only one."
"David Talbot: Diplomats rarely seldom get what they deserve."
