Dan Quayle had a trip planned to Beijing, but was worried because of
the turmoil at that end. His security adviser however informed him that
it was pretty safe for D. Q. as, 'They are only harassing intellectuals.'
And the President put his hand on my shoulder and said: 'Dan,
I _knew_ Spiro Agnew. He was a friend of mine. And Dan...
You're no Spiro Agnew!'
-- Vice President Dan Quayle
