Quote context

- You're afflicted with a fine, fat case of merchant psychology.

- You bargain and trifle with your own nature. That's your error.

- Didn't we pick each other out of millions?

- Can this be bargained away by saying, like a merchant: Marion will be herself and love Charlie only if he meets a certain price and conditions?

- Where's the rich, full-hearted woman I know you to be?

- I say no more bargains, no more conditions, no more of this either-or, neither-nor whim that strangles us both.

- I say no, and I say down with not being what we are!

- You can talk. You can talk.
