GUY. This is strange talk for a woman.
RUTH (dryly). Folk always say I should have been a man.
GUY (ardently). Thank God, you're not. It's better to rule a man than be one, Ruth.

RUTH. You told the others that.
GUY. Had they your beauty?
RUTH. Then I've the greater cause to guard it.
GUY. You haven't talked like this outside.
