Nixon in China: Act I, Scene 1: 'Your Flight Was Smooth, I Hope?'
CHOU:Your flight was smooth, I hope?
NIXON:Oh yes, smoother than usual I guess. Yes, it was very pleasant. We stopped in Hawaii for a day and Guam, to catch up on the time. It's easier that way. The Prime Minister knows about that. He is such a traveller.
CHOU: No, not I but as a traveller come home for good to China, one for whom all travel is a penance now. I am most proud to welcome you.
