I will not remain here. If they think I will let them ruin me, they're very much mistaken. This is an outrage and here fair play stops. (STROEBEL: The likes of you and fair play!) (bitterly). Yes, the likes of me. Every day we hear the confessions of those very people who publicly show contempt for us. We know how false are all virtuous words with which they condemn us, but we remain silent. (STROEBEL: Of course, you do all this out of pure sense of fair play?) Money?... My dear fellow, with money our patrons pay well for that very thing which they later on call indecent. You get as much decency from us for money as you get from other people, but believe me, we could shatter many illusions.
