"But this is different," Peter pleaded.
"Why is it different?"
"Well, you see, I can talk when I really believe in things and have a lot to say."
"Don't you believe in Antony?" asked Lady Mary. She was determined not to let him off.
"Yes," Peter admitted.
"Then why not talk about him?"
"But what about politics?" Peter objected.
"Haven't you any politics?"
"They all seem to be going," said Peter dismally. "Things aren't so simple as I thought."
