Gerardo Monologue from The Tenor

From The Tenor by Frank Wedekind

male · philosophical · 38 sec

No! Love is a beastly bourgeois virtue. Love is the last refuge of the mollycoddle, of the coward. In my world every man has his actual value, and when two human beings make up a pact they know exactly what to expect from each other. Love has nothing to do with it, either. Helen, will you compromise the happiness of your life and the happiness of your dear ones for just a few days' pleasure?
