Douglass Dumbrille: Uncle

Quotes 

• Uncle : Poor Don Carlos, suffered such excruciating misery from seasickness, almost at the despair of his life.

  Marietta : But he didn't die?

  Uncle : Fortunately not.

  Marietta : Sad.

• Marietta : Don't you see what he wants? The King doesn't care whom he forces me to marry just so long as he gets me at Versailles.

  Uncle : I said you are very fortunate.

  Marietta : Then I won't do it. I tell you I will not enter into that life of degradation and horror and corruption!

• Uncle : We shall expect you downstairs for chocolate.

• Marietta : Oh, hasn't he any pride? Doesn't he realize I loathe him? Doesn't he know I left France only to avoid having to marry him?

  Uncle : He knows nothing of the kind. I persuaded him that your running away was a whim. That you wanted to intrigue him, to become more desirable.

• Uncle : You display the conduct and the behavior of a street cat.

• Marietta : Yes, come in.

  Uncle : Get out!

• Uncle : If I were to treat you as you deserved you should be soundly thrashed.
