“Ellie: Aren’t you going to give me a little credit?
Peter: What for?

Ellie: Ooohh, I’ll remember that when we need forty cars.”

“Within the hollow crown
That rounds the mortal temples of a king
Keeps Death his court, and there the antic sits,
Scoffing his state and mocking at his pomp,
Allowing him a breath, a little scene,
To monarchize, be feared, and kill with looks.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
