Theodore "Laurie" Lawrence

– What do those girls do over there all day?
– Over the mysteries of female life there is drawn a veil best left undisturbed.

– Oh! This ridiculous dress! I've been tripping over it all night.
– Tie something around your neck where it can do you some good.

– Hello! Jo! Come over here!... You too, Meg! It's dead as tombs around here.
– Mr. Laurence! One doesn't shout at ladies as if they were cattle.

– Is it true that you lived in Italy among artists and vagrants?
– My mother was Italian. And a pianist... Grandfather disapproved of her.
