Both \\\"I could fix it all like that,\\\" and \\\"that\\\'s when you\\\'ll come knocking on my door,\\\" do give the impression that the whole game hinges on Raphael, which it doesn\\\'t. But the rest of the quote (\\\"One skull, two tenants, and no solution in sight,\\\" \\\"Try to cure yourself. Shop around — beg, borrow and steal. Exhaust every possibility until none are left\\\") is what you spend most of two of three acts invested in, so it\\\'s kind of pithy and apt. But it seems inelegant to chop up page quotes and stingers to make them work.

I\\\'m sure there\\\'s a better quote, we\\\'d just need to find it. It might even be a back and forth between more than one character.

Here\\\'s a line from one of the first dreams with your guardian/Dream Visitor:

->\\\'\\\'\\\"We haven\\\'t much time, so listen closely. There is great potential within you. It comes from that parasite. Your instinct is to resist the power that it gives, but you must accept it, nurture it. I will keep it from consuming you, but for the sake of both of us, you must learn to \\\'\\\'wield\\\'\\\' it.\\\"\\\'\\\'

There might be a line or two from Auntie Ethel as well that might be appropriate as well, possibly before she reveals her true self. I\\\'ll try and track down some more when I get the chance.
