Lady Edith : It is a blunt question indeed.

Lady Edith : A little man, Mr. Hayward, who cast a large shadow. A very large and rather crooked shadow.

Lady Edith : Well always leave a party at its height when you're most enjoying it.

Sophia de Haviland : Hello, Charles.
Charles Hayward : Sophia.
Lady Edith : How do you two know one another?

Lady Edith : Sophia has never been run away with in her life. By a horse or anything else, come to that.
Sophia de Haviland : Charles likes to think he rescued me.
Lady Edith : Oh, the dear boy.
