Night World1932

Tim Washington, the Doorman:
Most all them folks is starving for something, and it ain't food. They comes in here and eats and dances and hugs themselves up to a woman,and for a while they think they're happy. Then they comes out, and the world is just as cold and empty as it was before. That's real starvin', Mr. Ryan.

Officer Ryan:
Why, Tim, you're a philospher.

Tim Washington, the Doorman:
Am I? You don't say so. That ain't what my wife Mary says. She says I'm just a fool-talkin' old colored man.
