  Michael : Give me what?

  Sylvia Llewelyn Davies : Give you nightmares, darling, because... Oh, never mind. Why don't you wheel your father around the garden and show him all the flowers that have come up since he's been gone?

  Nico : Michael, look what Uncle Jim has brought you!

  George : But... but you're nearly better! Mother said so!

  Arthur Llewelyn Davies : There's always a chance, but...

  Jack : No, it's not true! Father, say it's not true!

  Arthur Llewelyn Davies : I'd howl if I thought it would do any good, but we must try to be brave. We mustn't think of ourselves. We mustn't, we mustn't...
