That's not very flattering, Marcellus.

A Clash of Authority and Defiance
Diana
Sire, Marcellus is my chosen husband. I wish to go with him.
Caligula
Stand back! You're not on trial! There's no evidence against you!
Diana
Then if it please you, sire, I'll provide evidence. I have no wish to live another hour in an empire ruled by you! You dare to call yourself a Caesar? Once the Caesars of Rome were noble, but in you, noble blood has turned to poison. You corrupt Rome with your spite and malice.
Caligula
Stop! Stop it!
Diana
That you should be Caesar! Vicious, treacherous, drunk with power, an evil, insane monster posing as emperor!
Caligula
STOP IT!
Diana
As for me, I have found another king. I want to go with my husband into his kingdom.
Caligula
Then, by the gods, you shall! GO, BOTH OF YOU, INTO YOUR KINGDOM!

Mister, I've been converted five times. Billy Sunday, Reverend Biederwolf, Gypsy Smith, and twice by Sister Falconer. I get terrible drunk, and then I get good and saved. Both of them done me a powerful lot of good - gettin drunk and gettin saved. Well, good night.
