We won't allow you to cheat yourself! You must see PSYCHO from beginning to end to enjoy it fully.

We say no one -- and we mean no one -- not even the manager's brother, the President of the United States, or the Queen of England (God bless her)! -- Alfred Hitchcock

You can't apply mortality to insane persons. -- HS
