Ellie Monologue from Heartbreak House

From Heartbreak House by Bernard Shaw

female · defiant · 43 sec

If you hint the slightest doubt of Hector's courage, he will go straight off and do the most horribly dangerous things to convince himself that he isn't a coward. He has a dreadful trick of getting out of one third-floor window and coming in at another, just to test his nerve. He has a whole drawerful of Albert Medals for saving people's lives.
