That is so true. One of my favorite anecdotes...

I think about 15 years ago, my brother and his wife took in eight kids from his sister in law who, after the father took all the money and fled to Greece, really couldn't care for the kids, she wasn't capable. A remarkable thing to do, and those kids spanned the ages from something like 5 years old to 12 years old. Crazy. They all had Greek names like Socrates, Telemachus, Plato, etc.

But I was visiting one day, and looking at all the kids out in the driveway, spinning with their arms out, running to and fro, and it looked vaguely familiar. I asked my brother what they were doing, and as we watched, I could hear them all singing in unison "We're the Knights of the Round Table, we dance when we are able!"

This is what they were doing!

My brother said they all loved "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and would walk around spouting dialogue from it! That had to be 30 years after the movie came out, but...there they were!
