Quotes 

• Margaret 'Toots' Brawne : Fanny wants a knife.

  Mrs. Brawne : What for?

  Margaret 'Toots' Brawne : To kill herself.

• Mrs. Brawne : Mr. Keats knows he can not like you. He has no living and no income.

• Charles Armitage Brown : If Mr. Keats and myself are strolling in a meadow, lounging on a sofa, or staring into a wall, do not presume we're not working. Doing nothing is the musing of the poet.

  Fanny Brawne : Are these musings what we common people know as thoughts?

  Charles Armitage Brown : Thoughts, yes, but of a weightier nature.

  Fanny Brawne : Sinking thoughts.

  Charles Armitage Brown : Not really, Miss Brawne, musing, making one's mind available to inspiration.

  Fanny Brawne : Mr. Brown? As in amusing?

  Charles Armitage Brown : [fuming] 

  Mrs. Brawne : Mr. Brown, our thought are all very simple so you never need worry about interrupting us. And we should be happy if you would join us for dinner on any day.

• Charles Armitage Brown : Uh, Mr. Keats is composing and does not want disturbing.

  Fanny Brawne : It's my finding, in the business of disturbing, you're the expert.

  Mrs. Brawne : Fanny, why not speak to one of us you hold in higher favor?

  Fanny Brawne : I'm praising him!

• [first lines between major players] 

  [general chatter] 

  Mrs. Brawne : Hello, Joy.

  Dilke Maid : Hello.

  Mrs. Brawne : Is all well?

  Dilke Maid : Very good, thank you.
