Gas Station Attendant: I don't care if your named was Rockefeller, nine dollars and twenty three cents.

Charlie Hughes: No no, not Rockefeller. Hughes, Charles Hughes, do you know what that means? You see that sign up there? I own two percent of that sign. That sign licenses you to sell gasoline. On Monday morning, that sign no longer licenses you to sell gasoline, because I own two percent of that sign, which means I own two percent of you. I don't want my two percent of you, so I'm going to get rid of it now! You understand what I mean? I hope you do, because there's a great big gasoline station down the road, selling great big gas to great big people, maybe you can get a job there fixing flats understand?
