• Caligula : [hallucinating]  Do you see her Claudius ? The Goddess Diana. Every night she comes to me. My arms. There there she goes. Now do you see her ?

  Claudius : No, sire.

  Caligula : [angrily]  Why not ?

  Claudius : Only you gods are privileged to see each other.

• Caligula : Christian. Do you renounce your false god ? This king of an invisible kingdom... who expects to come back some day and rule the earth ?

  Demetrius : [after a long pause]  There is no other king but Caesar. There is no power greater than his, in this world, or any other.

  Caligula : By the mercy of Caesar, you are a free man.

• Caligula : I have the power of life and death over every being in the empire! My power is as great as any god's! True?

  Claudius : True, sire.

  Caligula : Why should I have to die? Who should I have to suffer death like any plebeian, any slave? Is that logical? Is it?

  Claudius : No, sire.

• Caligula : Philosophers! Their brains are full of mildew!
