• [to an unruly stadium crowd] 

  Caligula : If you only had one neck, I'd hack it through.

• Caligula : Do you think I'm mad?

  Claudius : Mad?

  Caligula : Yes, sometimes I think that I'm going mad. Do you - be honest with me - has that thought ever crossed your mind?

  Claudius : Never. Never. The idea is preposterous. You set the standard of sanity for the whole world.

• Marcus : To tell the truth, lord, nature calls. It must have been something I ate last night.

  Caligula : Don't look at me. If I decide to doctor your food, you won't have to wait until morning to find out.
