Shu Fu Quotes in The Good Woman of Setzuan
SHEN TE: Your brother is assaulted, and you shut your eyes?
He is hit, cries out in pain, and you are silent?
The beast prowls, chooses and seizes his victim, and you say:
"Because we showed no displeasure, he has spared us."
If no one present will be witness, I will. I'll say I saw it.
YANG SUN: And the seven elephants hadn’t any tusks
The one that had the tusks was Little Brother
Seven are no match for one, if the one has a gun!
How old Chang did laugh at Little Brother!
Keep on digging!
Mr. Chang has a forest park
Which must be cleared before tonight
And already it's growing dark!
Smoking a cigar, SHUI TA strolls by.
POLICEMAN: The evidence, in short, my lord, proves that Mr. Shui Ta was incapable of the crime of which he stands accused!
FIRST GOD: I see. And are there others who could testify along, shall we say, the same lines?
SHU FU rises
POLICEMAN (whispering to GODS): Mr. Shu Fu—a very important person.
FIRST GOD (inviting him to speak): Mr. Shu Fu!
SU FU: Mr. Shui Ta is a businessman, my lord. Need I say more?
