From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2016-01-22:

"Every man identifies with Hamlet, it has been said, since every man imagines himself a disinherited monarch; every woman identifies with Alice, since every woman sees herself as the sole sane person in a world filled with lunatics who imagine themselves disinherited monarchs." -- Adam Gopnik
