A Touch of Love (1969)

Rachel Kempson: Sister Harvey

Quotes 

• Sister Henry : You're quite sure, Miss Stacey, you've thought this out properly? You ought to think about the child, you know. I'm quite sure your feelings will change considerably over the next few months. There are a great many happy, married couples who would be able to offer your baby a home and give her a much better life than you would ever be able to provide for her.

  Rosamund Stacey : Yes, well I expect it is arrogant of me to suppose that I too may have things to provide. I mean, I'm not a happy, married couple I know. But she is my baby.

  Sister Henry : You don't think that for an intelligent girl like you, that's a sentimental attitude?

  Rosamund Stacey : Sentimental?

  Sister Henry : Conventional.

  Rosamund Stacey : Ah, yes, well I am a very conventional person. I love my baby. I have every faith in myself. I want her and I intend to keep her.

  Sister Henry : Don't you think that's a little selfish?

  Rosamund Stacey : No. Do you?

  Sister Henry : Well, it's my duty to state the position clearly, you know? But you won't find it any easier later on.

  Rosamund Stacey : Well, I expect I'll manage one way or another.
