Manders Monologue from Ghosts

From Ghosts by Henrik Ibsen

That is a very disputable point, Mrs. Alving. A child's proper place is, and must be, the home of his fathers. (OSWALD: There I quite agree with you, Pastor Manders.) Only look at your own son--there is no reason why we should not say it in his presence--what has the consequence been for him? He is six or seven and twenty, and has never had the opportunity of learning what a well-ordered home really is. (OSWALD: I beg your pardon, Pastor; there you're quite mistaken.) Indeed? I thought you had lived almost exclusively in artistic circles.
