Vanessa: So your second cousin Lily is coming to visit you?
Victor: Yes, that's it entirely yes.
Vanessa: And what are we doing here?
Victor: Yes of course, being a country girl I thought I might buy her a dress or two so she'll fit in.

Sir Malcolm: Is it the story of Lucifer then? The angel cast out by God?
Mr. Lyle: Time will tell.

The Cut-Wife: Monsters all, are we not?

The Cut-Wife

I am like no others. That's why I'm here.

Vanessa

Caliban: Atoning for your first. All the love and companionship you denied me, visit upon her. She is our future, creator; tread carefully.

Now, I needn't remind you of the consequences of disloyalty.. Need I? All those photographs, so indiscreet.
