"Miss Truscott, I don't think you quite know what sort of man I am."
"You say you are a business man."
"But, excuse me, you don't seem to know what a business man is either. A business man is a man who sticks to his own bargains, and expects other people to stick to theirs."
"Is he, indeed. How very interesting!"
"You promised to be my wife."
"Always supposing that I did not change my mind."
"Always supposing nothing of the kind. There was no sort of supposition even hinted at. It was as plain and unequivocal a promise as was ever made by A to B."
"Don't you see, Mr. Ely, that you're placing me in a delicate position?"
"In what sort of a position do you think you're placing me?"
"Would you have me marry you--now?"
