"I was onstage and I felt my energy level dropping, just ebbing away. These were the days when people sat in the orchestra eating chocolate. Now they swig water — are they frightened of dehydration? Running a marathon?... Well, in the old days, they ate chocolates, and I saw a woman with a box of See's. I had to have one! So I snatched the box from this woman, such was my need. I accidentally put two chockies into my mouth... Greed has its reward: I choked onstage... It led to a pretty spectacular regurgitation... A very, very hard truffle shot back into the audience and slightly injured someone... Insurance covered it, of course."
-- Dame Edna, as quoted by the New York Post.
