— How many names do you use, Howl?
— Enough to guarantee my freedom.
— Your name is John Coffey?
— Yes, sir, boss. Like the drink, only not spelt the same.
— Hello, Greg.
...
— Is that why you're calling yourself "Greg"?
— That's his name.
— Is it?
— Yes. If you'd ever bothered to find out.
— I think about whose apartment we'll sleep at tomorrow and where we'll have dinner next Saturday! I do not think about our children's names! You know what our children's names will be?
— Ha, ha, no. No, I mean, you know. I read a book, and there was a girl named Emily. And I thought that might be good.
— What was the book?
— The Big Book of Children's Names.
— I'm Osgood Fielding the Third.
— I'm Cinderella the Second.
