Character: Isobel Crawley

- Have you been drinking this morning?
No, I did not. And you know, since we were together.
- I could look away.

How's your fiance?
- Lately there is no news.
- Have you already decided what will be your response?
- I think first, to let him know, and then you. Do you mind?
- You keep a break better than any actress.

I like it when young people standing up for their principles.
To have principles is to be a priest. Noble, of course. But it is not appropriate at parties.

- Do you want to apologize?
- Definitely not.
- How you hate to be wrong!
For all I know. I know the feeling unfamiliar.

Without respect for the past it will be difficult to build a future.
- Where did you read?
- Invented himself. I thought that went well.
- Even too much. We only poets in this family is not enough.
- What's wrong with that?
The only poet peer I am familiar with is Lord Byron. I think we all remember how that ended.

- So You take a young Page? He made me such a good experience...
- I was just wondering, no pressure if You your halo? Probably, it would be like to wear the tiara...
- Can you help? His mother will be very grateful, and I do too.
- Yes, but your gratitude is not long enough. If I say "Yes" and you immediately come back with another request.

- Don't be afraid. All my life I travel without my maid. And I can share with you my experience of survival in the jungle.
- Do you even can not offer, not proclaiming loudly about their moral superiority?
- And you always need to sound like sister Mary Atoinette?
The Queen of Sicily was a consistent person. I'll take that as a compliment.
- You take everything as a compliment.
- I advise you to do the same. This saves many embarrassing situations.

Good manners are never unnecessary.
