    Under what circumstances did Samuel Goldwyn make the statement, "Gentlemen, include me out"?

    Question #109297. Asked by looney_tunes. (Sep 30 09 2:39 AM)

    		QUOTE from following link: I suspect that Goldwyn's most widely repeated remark — "Gentlemen, include me out" — is an invention, as is, "We can get all the Indians we need at the reservoir."

    		That would explain why I couldn't pin it down when I was trying to provide a more complete answer for Question 109233! Shame, as its intent is perfectly clear, and a nice twist on the expected use of the language.
