[Rita is being nosy about Frank's marriage]
Dr. Frank Bryant
We split up, Rita, because of poetry.
Rita
You what?
Dr. Frank Bryant
One day, my wife explained to me that, for the past fifteen years, my output as a poet had dealt entirely with the part of our lives in which we discovered each other.
Rita
Are you a poet?
Dr. Frank Bryant
Was. And so, to give me something new to write about, she left me. A very noble woman, my wife - she left me for the good of literature. And remarkably it worked.
Rita
What, you wrote a lot of good stuff, did ya?
Dr. Frank Bryant
No. I stopped writing altogether.
