“The Greeks used to use the same stories, the same mythology, time after time, different authors. There was no premium placed upon an original story, and indeed, Shakespeare likewise. A lot of people wrote plays about great kings. They didn't expect a brand-new story. It was what that new author made of the old story. It is probably the same now. We disguise it by inventing what seem to be new stories, but they're basically the same story anyway.”

For instance, the boy in the film is not in the play, so this relationship that he had with the former teacher, and his guilt, this is not at all in the play.

We never meet them in our lives again, and we will miss them always.”
“The world would be a healthier place if oral contraceptives were available in every corner store and cigarettes were limited to prescription use.”
“I find it interesting how we get carried away by the dogma a-la-mode.”
