From Dr. Jonathan by Winston Churchill

George may have been foolish, but he isn't as foolish as that! (MINNIE: He doesn't care about me.) I'm glad you realize it. But you mean to stay here in Foxon Falls, nevertheless. You take advantage of Dr. Pindar, who is easily imposed upon, as his father was before him. But if I told you that you might harm Dr. Pindar by staying here, interfere with his career, would you be willing to leave?
