Paul Frees: John Beresford Tipton

Quotes 

• Michael Anthony : [Anthony enters the Tipton study to find Tipton seated in a high-backed chair, reading the Bible. Only Tipton's right arm is visible to the viewers]  You sent for me, sir?

  John Beresford Tipton : You know, Mike, there are many reasons why the Bible has always been the best seller of all time: for its profound, enduring religious importance, but also because it's a collection of the greatest stories in all the world.

  Michael Anthony : That it is indeed, sir.

  John Beresford Tipton : I have just been reading the story of a dream and a coat of many colors: the story of Joseph and his brethren.

  [Tipton hands over an envelope to Anthony] 

  John Beresford Tipton : Our next millionaire is a brother - no Joseph, of course, but he has already endured a considerable trial, not to mention many adventures.

  [Anthony bows and departs]
