John Adams:
Franklin, where in God's name have you been?
Dr. Benjamin Franklin:
Right here, John, being preserved for posterity. Do you like it?
[John walks around to look at the painting]
John Adams:
It stinks.
Dr. Benjamin Franklin:
As ever, the soul of tact.
John Adams:
Well, the man's no Botticelli.
Dr. Benjamin Franklin:
And the subject's no Venus.
John Adams:
Franklin, where were you when I needed you? You should have heard what I suffered in there.
Dr. Benjamin Franklin:
Oh, I heard, all right. Along with the rest of Philadelphia. Lord, your voice is piercing, John.
John Adams:
Well, I just wish to Heaven my arguments were.
