Thorpe quotes from The Prisoner

Thorpe

[to Number Six] You resign. You disappear. You return. You spin a yarn that Hans Christian Andersen would reject as a fairy tale.

Thorpe

And they're all... numbers? No names. No names at all?

Number Six

Just numbers.

I see.

Number Six

Numbers in a village that is a complete unit of our own society. A place to put people who can't be kept around. People who know too much or too little. A place with many means of breaking a man.

Thorpe

[about Number Six] Interesting fellow.

He's an old, old, old friend. Who never gives up.
