    It’s a pity you didn’t know when you started your game of murder, that I was playing, too.
    Robb White, and William Castle. Frederick Loren (Vincent Price)

    It is reported here that the King of Prussia has gone mad and has been locked up. There would be nothing bad about that: at least that might of his would no longer be a menace, and you could breathe freely for a while. I much prefer madmen who are locked up to those who are not.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
