  • Flora: How do you know? You're not a dog!
  • Hibble: I have planned this trip to the last detail and my schedule will be played out.
  • Flora: Well, I's a need to pee in my schedule.
  • Hibble: "Mrs. Allworthy never forced a woman into her service..."
  • Moll Flanders: ...but, like a good horse trainer, she made sure that the process became so familiar that it was quite natural that one might eventually be broken and saddled.
  • Hibble: Circumstances have taught me that a man's ethics are the only possessions he will take beyond the grave.

  • Flora: You've got a snake for a tongue, haven't you?
