Frau Beermann Monologue from Moral

From Moral by Ludwig Thoma

female · defiant · 55 sec

If I wanted to do that, I would have to begin "many, many years ago..." (BEERMANN: Well, why didn't you do it then?) You can well understand, I had my reasons. (BEERMANN: For such silence there can be no reasons.) I could shut my eyes and remain silent. That was my privilege. But if I had spoken out and permitted you to appease me... no, that was something beyond me. To do that I would have been obliged to lie and for that I, for one, have not the ability. (Beermann makes a motion.) No, do not interrupt me. These things will have no consequences as long as I do not wish them to, but if I should name them, then they would have.
