A chauffeur by any other name would smell as much of oil and petrol. It's actually my real name, too. Are you surprised? I was either too proud or too stubborn to change it I'm not sure which when I took up 'shuvving' for a livelihood." "No, I'm not surprised," I said. "You don't look like the sort of man who would change his name as if it were a coat. I've kept mine, too, to 'maid' with.
If it hadn't been for my aunt I should never have seen my sister." "Thank you. You're always kind and polite. Do you mean it was because of her you took to what you call 'shuvving'?" "Exactly." "But I thought I thought " "What?" "I don't dare tell you." "I should think you might know by this time that you can tell me anything. You must tell me!"
Looking back, it sounds caddish. But I generally do blurt out things stupidly. If I didn't, I shouldn't be 'shuvving' now only that's another story. To tell the whole truth, it wasn't the state of my pocketbook alone that influenced me last night. I had two other reasons. One was a selfish one, and the other, I hope, unselfish." "I hope the selfish one wasn't fear of being bored?"
