unearths some literary gems.
From Don't Cry for Me, Hot Pastrami, by Sharon Kahn:***"Do you all swear not to tell, not ever to tell what I'm going to tell you, so help you God?"This is too much. "I'm not swearing to God on this, Essie Sue.""Okay, Ruby, so we'll swear on my copy of the Jewish Forward--it has a national circulation. Good enough for you?"

From Up Front, by Victor Spinetti:
***
'You behave yourself when you're in Rome,' said Alan Webb, the old character actor. 'You be careful what you do here. We're representing Great Britain. Don't forget that.' The next day, he came to work in rather a state. He'd been found drunk wandering around Rome with no trousers on.'
