Oh... well... um, no, my source is a bit more mundane.  Shoulda said "where *I*

Brewer.  Patriot.

Mrs. Leverlilly: You've ruined that piano!
Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau: What is the price of one piano compared to the
terrible crime that's been committed here?
Mrs. Leverlilly: But that's a priceless Steinway!
Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Not anymore.
