Quotes 

• Hal Ormiston : [Reading his own review]  I devoted my stick of type today to a frank appraisal of the very doubtful talents of a young brush wielder named Steven Morrow.

  Police Lt. Larry Brooks : [Scene change. Review continues being read]  You will note that I do not dignify young Morrow with the term artist. He definitely is not an artist in any sense of the word.

  Steven Morrow : [Scene change. Review continues being read]  The empty face girls Morrow paints have no more artistic significance than the crazily conceived creations of that well known madman of scattering profession, Marcel De Lange.

  Steven Morrow : [pause. Slams newspaper to the table]  Another one. Harmon dies, and another persecute rises to hound me. Am I always to be beaten down by heartless ignorant critics who find strange delight in singling me out as a subject for their cruelty? Why am I not big and strong so I can throttle this man Ormiston? I can see him now, a drink at his elbow, chuckling over his cleverly turned phrases. He has money for food and drink while we must starve. It's unfair, I tell you.

  The Creeper : Where does he live?

  Steven Morrow : [Raises head to look into Creeper's face. Pauses]  At the Bagley Terrace, on East 54th Street.
