MARTHA. That doesn't help. She called me a liar. Zack (impressed). No. Did you, Sally?

SALLY. Yes, I did, and——

ZACK. I'm sorry to hear that of you, Sally.

SALLY (contrite). Well, she shouldn't have said——

ZACK. Maybe she spoke beyond her meaning. You did, didn't you, Martha?

MARTHA. I spoke hasty.

ZACK (to Sally). And you answered hasty, didn't you?

SALLY. I might.

ZACK. I thought so. Haste! It's the cause of half the trouble in the world. I never hurry. It's a principle with me.
