List of voters for the quote

Michel Boullard: Mr Chadwick, many years ago in my youth, wanting to taste all of life's pleasures, I did a very foolhardy thing... I bit into a marriage licencePaul Chadwick: A lot of good men have choked on thatMichel Boullard: [having coffee poured into his cup] Thank you. She was an American. Oh, it was an ideal marriage - until we left the wedding chapelPaul Chadwick: That's as much happiness as any man has the right to expectMichel Boullard: It was raining. Her gown got wet. And somehow she made me feel that I had failed in my first act as a husband; I had permitted the rain to fallPaul Chadwick: She lost confidence. If you couldn't stop the rain, what would you do if an earthquake came?Michel Boullard: I continued to fail her when she needed me most. Where was I when the pilot light went out on the stove? When her car ran out of gas? And what was I doing at the office, the day the plumbing got clogged?Paul Chadwick: An American husband would never be at the office when the plumbing got clogged - he'd rush home to share it with his wifeMichel Boullard: Then, one evening, we were sitting there enjoying a delightful dinner, when suddenly, my wife spoiled everything...Paul Chadwick: ...She showed upMichel Boullard: How did you know I was with another woman?Paul Chadwick: You said you were enjoying dinner, didn't you?Michel Boullard: Oh, it was a harmless flirtation. I tried to explain to my wife. But all she could do was stand there - and say, 'Well'! It would not have helped to have dropped a thousand apologies into that wellPaul Chadwick: A wife's well is bottomlessMichel Boullard: Now with a French wife, when I got home I would have found her in tears - and a new negligee. But with my wife, when I knocked on the bedroom door...Paul Chadwick: ...you found her with her lawyer...Michel Boullard: ...and a travel agentMichel Boullard: The next morning, she and the child were on a plane back to America. Fini!
