• Sue : Why are you looking at me like that?

  Jude Fawley : Does it scare you?

  Sue : No. I am not afraid of any man.

  Jude Fawley : Why?

  Sue : Because no man would touch a woman unless she gives him reason to. A touch or a look that say come on. If you never look, they'll never come. You are the timid sex.

  Jude Fawley : No.

  Sue : Even though I'm always trying to prove how much cleverer than you I am.

  Sue : Because it's not the sort of thing you should admit to!

  Jude Fawley : Even if it's true?

• Sue : Haven't we been punished enough?

• Sue Bridehead : Please don't call me a clever girl, Mr. Phillotson, there are too many of us about these days.
