"They're all the same, Spaniards, Italians, Frenchmen.... They were born for the same thing. They hardly meet an attractive woman but they believe that they are evading their obligations if they do not beg for her love and what comes afterward.... Cannot a man and woman simply be friends?

"You are an anarchist!" said the Socialist lawyer, addressing Carpenter.
