[seeing the Statue of Liberty for the first time]

Bertie Wooster:
She's a fair size, Jeeves.

Jeeves:
Indeed, sir.

Bertie Wooster:
Puts one in mind of Honoria Glossop in that white dress she used to wear at hunt balls.

Jeeves:
The similarity is a striking one, sir.

Bertie Wooster:
Now, Jeeves, why do you think they built all these tall buildings?

Jeeves:
Well, sir, it was partly because of the restricted size of Manhattan Island and partly because the island is solid granite and therefore capable of supporting such structures.

Bertie Wooster:
Nothing to do with having got the plans sideways, then.

Jeeves:
No, sir.

Bertie Wooster:
That's what Barmy told me.

Jeeves:
You will pardon me for saying so, sir, but Mr. Fotheringay-Phipps is not noted for his architectural expertise.
