Quote: Rusty Thomas (John Wayne) to Kit about beetles in Without Reservation (1946): ' They're very cute to look at but you've got to keep an eye on them. They make out that everything is alright, that they have no angle, that they just want a good time. Then, the first thing you know, you find them crawling around. They get in your hair, climb into your pockets and they give you mental fatigue.'
