"Lewis is strong. Lewis loves fighting. Lewis loves wrestling. But most of all, Lewis loves Lewis."

"Sweet summer evenings, sapphire skies, feasting your belly, feasting your eyes. Simple joys have a simple voice that says time is living's prize. And wouldn't you rather be a left-handed flea, a crab on a slab at the bottom of the sea, a newt on the root of a banyan tree, a fig on twig in Galilee, than a man who never learns how to be free? ["Simple Joys"]"

"Sometimes I wonder if the fornicating I'm getting is worth the fornicating I'm getting."

"[On Lewis:] Why do I always get nauseous when he calls me "Father"? (Fosse version only)"

"Your brother Lewis is an ideal soldier: he is strong and stupid."

"Lewis... is an asshole."

"Berthe: Men and their wars... Sometimes I think men raise flags when they can't get anything else up!"

"Lewis: [running off stage] Ha! Visigoths!"
