Selina: Mr. Molyneux, you’re quite romantic.
Lady Emily: You talk very little for a politician, Mr. Jordan.
Jordan: You all talk so well, it is a pleasure to listen.
Lady Emily: What you mean is, that we are difficult to interrupt. It is quite true. But once you cease to be discouraged by finding that what you hoped was going to be a solo is either a duet or a chorus, you will soon begin to rush in on all occasions, and ultimately you will learn to force a hearing for yourself.

[They all get up and help her off with her things, finally pushing her on to a sofa.
Ann: How spoilt I am.
Lady Emily: How tired you are.
Ann: But being with you all will soon put that right.
Lord William: You have missed a lot, Ann. Molly and I were at our best.
