Paul Frees: John Beresford Tipton

Quotes 

• Michael Anthony : [Anthony enters the Tipton library, where he observes Tipton seated in a high-backed chair at his desk, playing solitaire. Only Tipton's hands are visible to the viewers, as he plays the solitaire hands]  You sent for me, sir?

  John Beresford Tipton : [Tipton continues to play solitaire]  Mike, do you like solitaire?

  Michael Anthony : Well, I've always thought of it as a rather lonely game, sir.

  John Beresford Tipton : Lonely? Well, perhaps. For there are so many different kinds of loneliness. A man can feel very lonely even among many other people when he stands out alone against their opinions. A solitary game like that is a very difficult one.

  [Tipton hands over an envelope to Anthony] 

  John Beresford Tipton : Our next millionaire, Mike.

  [Anthony bows and turns to leave]
