Cyrus Hartlett Quotes in Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm (1938)

Cyrus Hartlett: Kent, our radio program starts next week, and you haven't found me a Little Miss America yet. I'm beginning to lose faith in the whole idea.

Tony Kent: Mr. Bartlett, if you'll just be patient...

Cyrus Hartlett: Patient? Look at all this advertising! I can't understand how you had the nerve to spread publicity from coast to coast before you even found the right child for the program.

Tony Kent: Now, just a minute, Mr. Bartlett. You've turned down some pretty talented kids, and some of them were very successful radio entertainers.

Cyrus Hartlett: That's just what was wrong with them. They weren't what the program calls for, and you know it.
