  • Mr. Neville: Madame, who is this child who walks the garden with such a solemn look on his face?
  • Mrs. Talmann: That is my husband's nephew, Mr. Neville.
  • Mr. Neville: He attracts servants like a little midget king. What is his patrimony, madame?

  • Mrs. Talmann: Your inventory, Louis, is unlimited. Like your long, clean, white breeches, there is nothing of substance in either of them.
  • [to her husband, Louis Talmann]
  • Mrs. Talmann: Your speech, Louis, is becoming meteorological.
