"Life Of Brian"

"Your death will stand as a landmark
in the continuing struggle to liberate the parent land
from the hands of the Roman imperialist aggressors,
excluding those concerned with drainage, medicine,
roads, housing, education, viniculture
and any other Romans contributing to the welfare
of Jews of both sexes and hermaphrodites.
Signed, on behalf of the P. F. J. , etc.
" And I'd just like to add, on a personal note,
my own admiration, for what you're doing for us,
Brian, on what must be, after all, for you a very difficult time."

“To me, the musical is best when it's a musical comedy, ... So if you have a very, very funny show, and very good, funny songs, that's what the musical does best.”
