WILLIAMS: I’ve always depended on the kindness of strangers
MACIVOR: I’ve always depended on all kinds of strangers.

W: Sometimes there’s God so quickly.
M: It might take forever, but sometimes there’s Art.
W: Blow out your candles, for today the world is lit by lightning.
M: Sometimes the daylight is unnecessary.
W: All good art is an indiscretion.
M: All good art poses a question.
W: Make voyages, attempt them. There’s nothing else.
M: Taxi!!
W: Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out an’ death’s the other.
M: There may be truth in wine, but there is reality in the hangover.
W: Time, who could beat it, who could defeat it ever?
M: Imagination obliterates time.
W: Why did I write? Because I found life unsatisfactory.
M: Why do I write? Because I have to.
W: We’ve had this date with each other from the beginning!
M: Thanks for answering my ad, sorry it didn’t work out.
