Quote
Oscar Wilde:
Robbie is Canadian. You can tell by his youth.
Ada:
Have you been brought to England to mature, Mr. Ross?
Robbie Ross:
That was the idea. But it doesn't seem to be working. I've lived here since I was three and you see the pitiful result.
Oscar Wilde:
Robbie comes from a long line of imperial governors. His grandfather was Prime Minister of Upper Canada. Or was it Lower Canada? The British take their class system wherever they go. They apply it even to continents.
Ada:
Are you planning to govern a continent?
Robbie Ross:
Oh, no. I don't even plan to govern myself.
