Where do you get such thoughts—you, who are so young?
FELIX
They just came into my head this minute.
JULIAN
You are not so very much mistaken, perhaps. But there is something else besides, that makes me want to clean house. I am about to become homeless, so to speak.
FELIX

JULIAN
I'm giving up my rooms here, and don't know yet what my next step will be. And so I think it's more pleasant to let these things come to a decent end rather than to put them in a box and leave them to molder away in a cellar.
