The Man in Grey (1943)

Stuart Lindsell: Thomas Lawrence

Quotes 

• Clarissa Marr : [Referring to her unfinished portraiture]  You paint me as a happy mother. I'm not very happy. I'm scarcely a mother... and yet I smile because I'm supposed to be happy.

  Lawrence : No, Lady Rohan; you smile because you're fortunate.

  Clarissa Marr : Aren't they the same thing?

  Lawrence : A dairy maid can be happy; but she's not obliged to smile when she's wretched. The fortunate must pay their debt. A great lady must never been seen without a smile.
