Rebecca Hall: Sylvia Tietjens

Quotes 

• Sylvia Tietjens : Oh, Christopher! If you had once in our lives said to me "You whore!" "You bitch!" or about the child or Perowne, you might have done something to bring us together. And I dare say, if you're shot... Christ... between the saddle and the ground, you'll say you never did a dishonourable action. In the name of the Almighty, how can any woman live beside you?

  Christopher Tietjens : But I never disapproved of your actions.

  Sylvia Tietjens : I'm done for you. I'm not going to listen to you.

  Christopher Tietjens : You were let down at the beginning by a brute. So you have the right to let down a man. It's woman against man, now and ever has been.
