Quote context

[...]

- Warren Sheffield's been writing to her for six months without one word that even smells like a proposal.

- What's that got to do with having dinner an hour early?

- Warren Sheffield is telephoning Rose long-distance at half past 6.

- Long-distance?

- Yes, from New York City.

- And if the whole family's sitting here in the room, she may be loath to say the things a girl's compelled to say to get a proposal out of a man. If the man, unfortunately, is Warren Sheffield.

- Personally, I wouldn't marry a man who proposed to me over an invention.

- Well, we can't be too particular.

- Although we love Rose, the brutal fact is that... well, she isn't getting any younger.

- There's the poor old maid now.

- Esther. Esther! He's out there.

- John Truett?

- On the porch.

- Avec vous! Avec vous!

- Now, be perfectly calm. We have the perfect right to sit on our own front porch.
