Sydney. When it’s a man you can.
Kit. My dear girl, you don’t know what you’re talking about.
Sydney. My dear boy, if a girl finds out that it’s not right for her to marry a man, it’s up to her to choke him off.
Kit. Rot!
Sydney. Well, I think so.
Kit. Couldn’t be done.
Sydney. Couldn’t it just?
Kit. Any man would see through it.
Sydney. As if any man ever saw through anything! As if I couldn’t choke you off in five minutes if I wanted to!
Kit. I’d like to see you try!
