Quotes4

  • Miss Ettie Coombes: My wicked worldliness has caught up with me at last! The Babu of Garoka always said it would.
  • Dr. Glendon: My dear wife has just been scolding me.
  • Miss Ettie Coombes: Yes, how you manage to keep your dear wife is a mystery to me. Skirmishing off the way you do. Leaving her alone, months on end.
  • Lisa Glendon: Anyhow, I knew the risk I took when I married one of the black Glendons of Malvern.
  • Miss Ettie Coombes: Marrying any man is risky. Marrying a famous man is kissing catastrophe.
  • Dr. Glendon: Are you planning on staying in England... long?
  • Paul Ames: No. I return to California on the fourth. I've made my home there.
  • Lisa Glendon: How does it feel to have a flying school of one's own? To be able to hop across from San Francisco to Tokyo in the twinkling of an eye?
  • Paul Ames: [chuckles] At this moment, I ask nothing more of life.
  • Dr. Glendon: Really? A very enchanting mood to be in... to ask nothing more of life. Are you in that mood, Lisa?
  • Miss Ettie Coombes: [in Lisa not replying in her seeming discomfort] Well, anyway, I'm in that mood. All these lovely flowers about. Oh, how true: only God can make a daffodil.
  • Dr. Glendon: The poet said, "Only God can make a tree," Aunt Ettie.
  • Miss Ettie Coombes: Well, isn't it just as difficult to make a daffodil, Wilfred?
  • Dr. Glendon: Much more so.
  • Miss Ettie Coombes: She sings Botticelli divinely.
  • Lady Forsythe: [slightly indignant] One doesn't "sing" Botticelli. One *paints* him.
  • Miss Ettie Coombes: Oh, yes. I forgot for the moment.
