Woman of Straw

Charles Richmond:
All our years of marriage she never once raised her voice at me, never tried to wheedle anything out of me. She was... remarkable.

Maria Marcello:
You were a lucky man.

Charles Richmond:
She died in great pain. A kind nature is no defense in sickness and death. So... what's the point of it?

Maria Marcello:
He was telling me about your mother.

Anthony 'Tony' Richmond:
How she liked his strength after my father's weakness? How she loved him, despite his wealth?

Maria Marcello:
He was so sad when he talked about her dying.

Anthony 'Tony' Richmond:
Did he tell you what he said the minute after she died?

Maria Marcello:
No...

Anthony 'Tony' Richmond:
He said, "You gave me everything, and took nothing. You were a very stupid woman." Let's not get sentimental, shall we?
