Quotes 

• Ellen Neal : I'm talking about love Dick. You're talking about marriage. I couldn't marry you because... it would just be a mistake. That's all.

• Ellen Neal : I couldn't be seen in public with you. You know that.

• Mrs. Winfield : Ellen. I want you to tell me the truth. Were you ever arrested?

  Ellen Neal : Yes I was, but, you see it was all a mistake.

  Wroxton : It was not a mistake!

• Perry Winfield : Now look here, young woman. I'm going to be very generous in this situation. I'll give you $5000 to settle.

  Ellen Neal : I don't want your money. I wouldn't take anything from you. The only thing I want is to get out of this house. I don't ever want to see any of you again. You treated me like a criminal just because I love your son. And now I'm not good enough for him. I'm only good enough to have his baby.

  [She bursts into hysterical sobs and runs out of the room] 

  Wroxton : If you'll permit me Sir, I shall see to it that she causes you no further annoyance. Dinner is served, Madam.
