"What do you think of actresses?"
"I don't think of them, Mrs. FitzHerbert."
"Not of Bessie?"
"Never as an actress."
"Yet she is one, and clever too,"
"If I had my way she 'd never walk the boards after to-night."
"But you have n't your way, Mr. Moore."
"Worse luck!"
"Oh, perhaps it is fortunate for Mistress Bessie that you do not direct her destinies."
"I think no man enjoys seeing a woman he cares for upon the stage."
