From East of Suez: A Play in Seven Scenes by W. Somerset (William Somerset) Maugham

Civility. I like to be on friendly terms with my tenants. (DAISY: Your what?) (Urbanely.) This happens to be my house. When I discovered that your honourable mother had taken the rooms in this courtyard so that you might have a place where George Conway and you could safely meet I thought I would buy the whole house. (DAISY: I hope it was a good investment.) Otherwise perhaps I should have hesitated. It was clever of you to find so convenient a place. With a curio shop in front into which anyone can be seen going without remark and an ill-lit passage leading to this court, it is perfect.
