Lord William: I don’t know.
Molyneux: We should see more of Ann if we could appear to her as a duty. Unfortunately, we are undoubtedly a pleasure.
Selina: You might make a bid as sinners in need of reform.
Tim: But that is just what is so wonderful about Ann. She never wants anyone to be better—only happier.
Lord William: Ann is my niece. She is, of course, a saint, but she is not a fool. No Cathcart is a fool.
Selina: Amen.
Lord William: Don’t interrupt. I was about to say something very good.
Selina: Would you like to “think it out in silence?”
Lord William: What were we talking about?
Mrs. Martineau: There is only one subject in this house.
