Quotes

- I've been pushing this giant stone around for seven hours! No one's come to give me any water, any lemonade or anything. Just old Larry, pushing the stone around. I feel like Sisyphus. That's a very smart reference.
- I've got to be honest, Papa, I don't really know who Sisyphus is. Is that what Mummy said the milkman gave her?

- Can you take over the grain mill?
- Alright. But I'm only seven!
- Child labour laws won't be invented for another hundred years.

- Little boy says you've got some Sisyphus. Wanna explain?
- Sisyphus? You're talking about the great... Greek philosopher? Is that who it is?
- No! If you knew who it was, I might have forgiven you.
