“Is it me or are bells ringing?”
“You’re in a mental institution. What do you think?… Besides, they aren’t ringing, they’re tolling.”
“You’re both wrong. They’re knelling.”
“Is that even a word? No matter. They’re pealing.”
“By God, you’re right. The war’s over.”
“They’d be ringing out wildly if the war were over.”
“It’s the top of the hour, you fools.”
“Oh, thirty o’clock is it, Mr. Know-It-All?”
“My radiator sounds better than that cacophony.”
“Somebody let the hunchback get his hands on the rope again.”
“The gates are open.”
“Till the bells stop. Off we go, then.”
