While reading the New York Times 15th annual Lives They Lived issue of their magazine I came across this suave scene from their tribute to song writer Lew Spence.
Spence himself had a girlfriend, the actress Phyllis Kirk, whom he met after gazing at her across a restaurant. Summoning the nerve, he approached and told her, “You’re beautiful.” She replied, “Sit down.”
"Sit down." I love that line.
