Quote
Lord Mansfield:
[confronting them]
This man's ambition includes you. You will endure shame and risk your position for a man without name, who will sully yours and drag your reputation into the gutter.
John Davinier:
I take great offense at your summation of my character without ever even taking a moment to know me. Where is your right?
Lord Mansfield:
Right? I have every right!
John Davinier:
That you will never have. Not until you cease from judging the entire world as those above and those below, and begin to see people as people. Human beings who think and feel no more or less than you do.
Lord Mansfield:
I know there is a lady in Belsize who is waiting to be your wife.
John Davinier:
No, I have an ambitious aunt in Belsize, who like you, assume that wealth and reputation are all that life depends on, and despises love as though it were the devil's own creation!
Lord Mansfield:
Love? You claim love?
Dido Elizabeth Belle:
Stop!
John Davinier:
Yes! Yes! I love her! I love her with every breath I breathe!
Dido Elizabeth Belle:
Go, John. You do not deserve this.
John Davinier:
[bounds out the door]
Dido Elizabeth Belle:
Captain Sir John Lindsay would never have behaved like this.
Lord Mansfield:
Captain Sir John Lindsay would never have behaved like this, because Captain Sir John Lindsay was never here.
