"George and Emily are going to show you now the conversation they had when they first knew that... that... as the saying goes... they were meant for one another.

"But before they do that I want you to try and remember what it was like to have been very young.

"And particularly the days when you were first in love; when you were like a person sleepwalking, and you didn't quite see the street you were in, and didn't quite hear everything that was said to you.

"You're just a little bit crazy. Will you remember that, please?"

--Stage Manager, Thornton Wilder's "Our Town"
