Butler

It is said that no one is a hero to their butler. The reason is, that it requires a hero to recognize a hero. The butler, however, will probably know well how to estimate his equals.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

We were driving and passed a sign that said "Belvedere."

Leslie: Wasn't that a show about a butler?

Me: Yes. I believe it was called, "Mr. Belvedere."

Leslie: My favorite butler was Mr. French.

(pause)

Me: I can't believe you have a favorite butler.

(Also, the correct answer to "Who is the best butler" is Alfred Pennyworth, not Mr. French)
