Dead of Night Quote
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 thunder-storm. 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.
