The Hunchback of Notre Dame - Monuments of Faith and History in France
King Louis XI:
All over France, in every city, there stand cathedrals like this one, triumphal monuments of the past. They tower over the homes of our people like mighty guardians, keeping alive the invincible faith of the Christian. Every arch, every column, every statue is a carved leaf out of our history—a book in stone, glorifying the spirit of France.

Foreign Correspondent - Seeking a Reporter for a Major Story
Mr. Powers:
I don't want any more economists, sages, or oracles bombinating over our cables. I want a reporter! Somebody who doesn't know the difference between an -ism and a kangaroo. A good, honest crime reporter. That's what the Globe needs. That's what Europe needs. There's a crime hatching on that bedeviled continent.
Mr. Powers:
How would you like to cover the biggest story in the world today?
John Jones:
Give me an expense account and I'll cover anything.
Mr. Powers:
I'll give you an expense account.
John Jones:
Okay, What's the story?
Mr. Powers:
Europe.
John Jones:
Well, I'm afraid I'm not exactly equipped, sir, but I can do some reading up.
Mr. Powers:
No no, no reading up. I like you just as you are, Mr. Jones. What Europe needs is a fresh, unused mind.
John Jones:
Foreign correspondent, huh?
Powers:
No, reporter. I don't want correspondence, I want news.
