Start: Sister Aloysius: We might as well have a talk. I’ve been meaning to talk to you. I observed your lesson on the New Deal at the beginning of the term. Not bad.
End: Sister Aloysius: This is not generally known and I don’t want it known. If they find out in the rectory, she’ll be gone. I can’t afford to lose her.

Shanley, John Patrick. Doubt. New York: Theater Communications Group, 2005, pp. 10-15.
