Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Dr. Simon Jordan : I want to speak to you about an account I read of Grace at the asylum.

  [screaming] 

  Dr. Simon Jordan : It paints her as a gibbering madwoman. Shrieking like a phantom, and running around like a singed monkey.

  Reverend Verringer : Have you developed your own theories regarding her sanity?

  Dr. Simon Jordan : I have been proceeding with the utmost caution.

  Reverend Verringer : Have you asked her what she remembers?

  Dr. Simon Jordan : She remembers her life before arriving at Mr. Kinnear's with a vividness and a mass of circumstantial detail that indicates the problem is not with her memory in general.
