Gillette
Ransom as Jessie
Gillett - Jorie Latham
as Charlotte
Gillett (circa
1900):
"As you may know, Jessie and I dedicated this building to
the memory of our mother,
Lemira Parke Gillett, 100 years ago."
Bob McCue
recounting his school days in
the Elkhart Library:
"What
portion of your education was gleaned from the written
word?"
Warren Brown
as Mark Twain in likeness,
demeanor, and story-telling:
"Always obey your parents when they're around!"
"The man who is a pessimist before 48, knows too
much; if he is an
optimist after it, he knows too little."
"April 1 ... is the day upon which we are reminded of what
we are the other 364."
"An honest man in politics shines more than he would
elsewhere."
