Quotes4

  • [Sally's mother has shown up to drag her away to a party for her godfather, Edwin]
  • Sally O'Hara: But, Mother, I can't! You see, this is Mr. Craig, and I'm one of the characters in his dream!
  • Mrs O'Hara: [shakes his hand briskly] Oh, how do you do? Such fun, charades! So, you do understand, don't you, and poor Edwin's so terribly sensitive. Now, come along!
  • Sally O'Hara: Mummy, you mustn't! You see, Mr. Craig's going to hit me - savagely!
  • Mrs O'Hara: Oh, well, I'm sure he can hit somebody else instead. Now, come along, dear!
  • Sally O'Hara: You're dead? How about a nice cup of tea?
  • Dr. van Straaten: Mr. Craig, can you describe what happens in your dream?
  • Walter Craig: Well, not in detail. But it always starts exactly the same as when I arrived, just now. I turn off the main road into the lane. At the bend in the lane, the house comes into view, and I stop as I recognize it. Then I drive on again. And Foley meets me at the front door. I recognize him, too. And then, while I'm taking off my coat, I have the most extraordinary feeling. I nearly turn and run for it, because I know I'm going to come face-to-face with the six...
  • Sally O'Hara: Well, you've only come face-to-face with five of us so far, not counting Eliot.
  • Walter Craig: That's right, five of you. There is a sixth person who comes in later.
  • Dr. van Straaten: Can you describe this late arrival?
  • Walter Craig: It's an attractive girl with dark hair.
  • Dr. van Straaten: [laughing] Is that all you can tell us about her?
  • Walter Craig: She comes in quite unexpectedly and says something about not having any money.
  • Eliot Foley: A penniless brunette, eh?
  • Sally O'Hara: How romantic! Do you fall madly in love with her, Mr. Craig?
  • Dr. van Straaten: Well, if I am a puppet and Mr. Craig's pulling the strings, the least he can do is to tell me a little bit more about the part he's giving me to play.
  • Walter Craig: I wish it were as easy as that. But trying to remember a dream is like, how shall I put it, being out at night in a thunderstorm. There's a flash of lightning, and for one brief moment everything stands out, vivid and startling.
  • Dr. van Straaten: And what have the lightning flashes illuminated so far?
  • Walter Craig: One thing is very vivid and very horrible. I hit Sally savagely, viciously.
  • Sally O'Hara: Oh, no you won't! I shall stick close to Mr. Grainger. He's bigger than you.
  • Walter Craig: Well, anyway, it isn't consistent. I shan't have a chance to, 'cause you leave here quite soon, quite suddenly.
