Baron Cesarea : I think you're all wrong to be afraid. I talked to him about dying, and he said "Has it ever occurred to you that Death may be simpler than Life and infinitely more kind?"
Duke Lambert : He said that?
Baron Cesarea : Yes... and when he spoke, I had a curious feeling that somehow he knew.

Baron Cesarea : [hearing that someone has just narrowly escaped death] Well, it just wasn't time for the Old Man to take him.
Prince Sirki : [offended] I beg your pardon! The Old Man?
Prince Sirki : [realizing the humor in the remark] Ah yes... the Old Man!
