Lucy Monologue from Waste: A Tragedy, In Four Acts

From Waste: A Tragedy, In Four Acts by Harley Granville-Barker

female · inspirational · 54 sec

Oh... I'm not explaining what I mean quite well perhaps. Walter has been everywhere and done everything. He speaks three languages... which all makes him an ideal private secretary. (TREBELL: Quite.) Do you think he'd develop into anything else... but for me? (TREBELL: So I have provided just a first step, have I?) (With real enthusiasm.) Oh, Mr. Trebell, it's a great thing for us. There isn't anyone worth working under but you. You'll make him think and give him ideas instead of expecting them from him. But just for that reason he'd get so attached to you and be quite content to grow old in your shadow ... if it wasn't for me.
