Rev. Dr. Lloyd Quotes:

  • Rev. Dr. Lloyd: After considerable thought, we voted that our supporting members should each contribute a sum equal to the cost of their pew.

    Father: I paid $5,000 for that pew.

    Vinnie: Yes, Clare, that makes our contribution $5,000.

    Father: That's robbery. Do you know what that pew is worth today? $3,000. That's what the last one sold for. I've taken a dead loss on that pew of $2,000 already. Frank Bags sold me that pew when the market was at its peak. He knew when to get out. And I'm warning you, Vinnie. If the market ever goes up, I'm going to unload that pew!

  • Rev. Dr. Lloyd: Mrs. Day, your husband is a practical man. We've had to be practical about the new church. We have all the facts and figures.

    Father: Oh? What's the property worth where we are now?

    Rev. Dr. Lloyd: Oh, let's see. Is it $40,000? I know the figure has a four in it.

    Father: What's the new piece of property going to cost you?

    Rev. Dr. Lloyd: I think the figure I heard mentioned was $85,000. Or was it $185,000?

    Father: Dr. Lloyd, you preach that someday, we'll all have to answer to God.

    Rev. Dr. Lloyd: We shall indeed.

    Father: Well, I hope God doesn't ask you any questions with figures in them!
