Quotes 

• Marianne Patourel : [Discussing William's love for Marguerite]  But when you wrote to my father you lied. You asked for my hand in marriage.

  William Ozanne : I didn't lie. Listen to me, Marianne. I love you.

  Marianne Patourel : Listen to more lies! You never loved me! You loved *her*. But you sent for me. Why?

  William Ozanne : It wasn't a lie. It was o...

  Marianne Patourel : Why did you send for me?

  William Ozanne : I'll tell you, Marianne. Now I must tell you. I never wanted you to know. I never thought you would ever find out. But now...

  Marianne Patourel : What did you never want me to find out?

  William Ozanne : That I accidentally wrote your name instead of Marguerite's in the letter to your father.

  Marianne Patourel : [She looks crushed]  You accidentally wrote my name? Our whole marriage has been a... slip of the pen?

  William Ozanne : Marianne...

  Marianne Patourel : Does Marguerite know of-of your slip of the pen?

  William Ozanne : No. Absolutely not. I never even so much as hinted anything. Oh, please. Believe me, Marianne. I never told a living soul. Well, that's not quite true. I told Tai Haruru.

  [She looks moritfied] 

  William Ozanne : I had to tell him.

  Marianne Patourel : Tai Haruru knew? He knew that you hated me. I thought I reached the lowest depths of degradation. But I didn't expect this. So, Tai knew. Course he knew. Now I understand everything. Why you never would've married me if he hadn't forced you into it. Would you, William?

  [He turns away guiltily] 

  Marianne Patourel : Oh, William. William don't ever speak to me again!

• Marianne Patourel : Goodbye William. You would look much more like a human being, if you combed your hair.
