"I ask you, what am I? I'm one of the undeserving poor: thats what I am. Think of what that means to a man."
"The quality of a play is the quality of its ideas."
"There is no subject on which more dangerous nonsense is talked and thought than marriage. If the mischief stopped at talking and thinking it would be bad enough; but it goes further, into disastrous anarchical action. Because our marriage law is inhuman and unreasonable to the point of downright abomination, the bolder and more rebellious spirits form illicit unions, defiantly sending cards round to their friends announcing what they have done. Young women come to me and ask me whether I think they ought to consent to marry the man they have decided to live with; and they are perplexed and astonished when I, who am supposed to have the most advanced views attainable on the subject, urge them on no account to compromise themselves without the security of an authentic wedding ring."
