James Murdock: Mushy

Quotes 

• Mendel Sorkin : Naturally you're going to send your share home.

  Mushy : Well.

  Mendel Sorkin : At least you don't intend to waste it on dancing, girls, foolishness.

  Mushy : Well, to tell you the truth, I did have a little foolishness on my mind.

  Mendel Sorkin : I see. Your mother has never done anything for you in all her life. Why should you do anything for her? Why should you save a little of your wages for your selfish mother.

  Mushy : Now hold on, Mr Sorkin.

  Mendel Sorkin : I'm merely trying to find out why you don't love her.

  Mushy : I do love her.

  Mendel Sorkin : Moshe , when did you last write home, send her a little thought, a slight gift.

  [Mendel means the tacky Indian doll with the big feather that he has]

  Mendel Sorkin : Moshe? Are you Jewish?

  Mendel Sorkin : Be proud of your heritage, Moshe. You come from a proud people.
