Here at TV Tropes we are only allowed at least one quote on the main or work page. Here are other candidates that would be worthy for putting on the front page that summarise the work.
"Front, back and sides; not too much off the top."
— Duc de Pommfrit, seconds away from the blade on the guillotine.
"Paris, 1789. The Great Revolution has begun. The hands of the masses are smeared with the blood of the poor bleeding aristocracy. Every day the tumbrels run a regular half-hour service between the Bastille and the many guillotines around the city. The growing mounds of noble heads are only matched by the growing mounds of unused return tickets. No-one is spared. Madame la Guillotine claims them all. Dukes and Duchesses, Lords and Ladies, men and women of both sexes. A dozen times an hour, the drums roll, the blade falls, and the heads roll. Yes — every five minutes, a freshly sliced loaf."
"Don't Lose Your Head!
Don't lose your head when you can't pay your taxes. Don't lose your head when they're grinding their axes.
Try to calm when your head's on the block... you may be in for a nasty shock!
Don't lose your head — get a hold of your wig! Smile when the gravedigger's swords start to dig.
Don't lose your head — you'll get by in the end! Don't lose your head, my friend!
Don't lose your head when they're screaming for blood! Don't lose your head or your name will be mud!
You're asking for trouble if you know head, cause when you wake up, YOU'LL BE DEAD!!
Don't lose your head when the world's at its worst! Don't lose your head when the bubble has burst.
Don't lose your head — you'll get by in the end! Don't lose your head, my friend!
Don't Lose Your Head, my friend!"
Don't lose your head when you can't pay your taxes. Don't lose your head when they're grinding their axes.
