Quiet Wedding (1941)

Peggy Ashcroft: Flower Lisle

Quotes 

• Flower Lisle : I must be alone some part of the day. My mind gets so muddled if I'm never alone.

  Janet's Father : I'm sure it does.

• Flower Lisle : Do you mind if I hang my own pictures on the wall? I'm never happy without my pictures.

  Janet's Mother : No, if you can manage with the nails that are there.

  Flower Lisle : Oh, that's perfectly all right. I brought some special little wall pins. They leave no marks.

• Flower Lisle : Oh, by the way. I think you ought to know, I am not John's fiancé yet. I shall decide definitely after this weekend.

  Janet's Brother John : Flower!

• Flower Lisle : Oh, that's perfectly all right. It's the mental attitude that counts. I should be comfortable in a pig sty.

  Janet's Mother : Oh, heh, heh, then you should be quite all right in Marcia's room.

• Flower Lisle : Do you mind if I sit on the floor? I always sit on the floor.

• Flower Lisle : You're very beautiful.

  Dallas Chaytor : Who, me?

  Flower Lisle : Of course, you're a mess of complexes.

  Dallas Chaytor : Oh, am I?

  Flower Lisle : I could help you, you know.

  Dallas Chaytor : That's awfully nice of you, but, uh...

  Flower Lisle : You must tell me one of your dreams.

  Dallas Chaytor : You... uh, some other time, I think.

  Flower Lisle : No, now.

• Flower Lisle : I think I shall like you.

• Janet's Mother : This is my husband, John's father, of course.

  Flower Lisle : Why of course?

  Janet's Father : Why, indeed. But I am, supposedly.
