'Must be--unless we've appropriated all the
happiness
in the
world.
Kipling - Poems
But no one would understand--even if it were put into a book.
Mrs.
G.
The idea!
No--only we ourselves, or people like ourselves--if
there are any people like us.
Capt.
G.
(Magisterially.
) All people, not like ourselves, are blind
idiots.
Mrs.
G.
(Wiping her eyes.
) Do you think, then, that there are any people
as happy as we are?
Capt.
G.
'Must be--unless we've appropriated all the
happiness
in the
world.
Mrs.
G.
(Looking toward Simla.
) Poor dears!
Just fancy if we have!
Capt.
G.
Then we'll hang on to the whole show, for it's a great deal too
jolly to lose--eh, wife 'o mine?
Mrs.
G.
O Pip!
Pip!
How much of you is a solemn, married man and how
much a horrid slangy schoolboy?
Capt.
G.
