Gloria Monologue from You Never Can Tell

From You Never Can Tell by George Bernard Shaw

female · defiant · 40 sec

I do not know you well enough, Mr. Valentine, to have any opinion on the subject of your personal merits. I do not think the conditions of marriage at present are such as any self-respecting woman can accept. Ah, now you are beginning to talk humanly and sensibly, Mr. Valentine. I hope to meet many such people in England. Oh, everybody is stupid and prejudiced in Madeira--weak, sentimental creatures! I hate weakness; and I hate sentiment.
