Mrs. Tremaine.
No—none.
Miss Macfarlane.
A woman who has had such unpleasant experiences ought to hate and despise men. But of course you don't?
Mrs. Tremaine.
(laughing) No—I don't think I hate men exactly. I despise some men heartily.
Miss Macfarlane.
They're gey ill to live wi', eh?
Mrs. Tremaine.
I don't think marriage suits me, somehow. I suppose it suits some people. But I think it often tends to reduce them to a dead level of commonplace. The artificial bond makes people too sure of each other. It does not do to take love too much for granted, I think.
