I know plenty of dingy people.
I don't want to know any more.

:38:06
Miss Archer isn't dingy.
:38:10
She fills all your requirements.
:38:12
More or less, of course.
:38:14
No. Quite literally.
:38:32
What do you want to do with her?
:38:38
What you see. Put her in your way.
:38:45
Isn't she meant
for something better than that?

:38:48
I don't pretend to know
what people are meant for.

:38:51
I only know what I can do with them.
:38:53
I'm sorry for Miss Archer.
:38:57
If that's the beginning of interest
in her, I take note of it.

:39:02
You're looking very well.
:39:05
You never look so well
as when you've got an idea.

:39:10
They're always becoming to you.
:39:18
I wish very much
you were not so heartless.

:39:21
It's always been against you,
and it will be against you now.

:39:26
I'm not so heartless as you think.
:39:30
Every now and then
something... touches me.

:39:34
As for instance,
your ambitions for me.

:39:37
Why would you think Mrs Touchett's
niece should matter to me when...

:39:42
...I myself have mattered so little?
:39:44
That is not what I
meant to say, of course.

:39:48
When I have known and appreciated
such a woman as you.

:39:54
Isabel Archer is better than I.
