From Heartbreak House by Bernard Shaw

You had no right to discuss me with Hector. I will not be discussed by men. (HECTOR: Be reasonable, Ariadne. Your fatal gift of beauty forces men to discuss you.) Oh indeed! what about YOUR fatal gift of beauty? (HECTOR: How can I help it?) You could cut off your moustache: I can't cut off my nose. I get my whole life messed up with people falling in love with me. And then Randall says I run after men.
