- Vincent Crane: From your previous reply, I gather that you regard all women not only as potential, but willing victims.
- Stephen Champion: No, how can a woman be a victim if she's willing?
- Stephen Champion: Then let's be perfectly honest with each other.
- Stella Crane: Oh, good heavens, no. No respectable person's ever quite honest.
- Stephen Champion: Oh, and no honest person is ever quite respectable.
- Stella Crane: If you're respectable, you'll stop talking to me and go on.
- Stephen Champion: And if I'm honest, I'll stay. Which would you rather I were?
- Stephen Champion: Yes, darling, you always say the right thing -- even if you say it in the wrong way.
