Athelny
- Thorpe Athelny: Here I am in a charity hospital, because my father loved fast women and slow horses.
- Thorpe Athelny: I was married to a lady once. Good heavens! Never marry a lady, my boy.
- Philip Carey: Oh really? Why?
- Thorpe Athelny: Because a lady has a point of view, a personality and an individuality, all to devil you with!
- Thorpe Athelny: Well, I suppose youth must be served, but I must say, I'm sick and tired of serving it!
- Thorpe Athelny: I don't think women ought to sit down at table with men.
- Philip Carey: Oh! Don't you? Why not?
- Thorpe Athelny: It ruins conversation. I'm sure it's very bad for them. It puts ideas in their heads. And women are never at ease with themselves when they have ideas.
- Philip Carey: You sound like the old voice of England.
- Thorpe Athelny: I am, sir. And this is fine old Yorkshire pudding that gives me the strength to carry on.
