[Aunt Alicia proudly displays a dazzling emerald from her collection]
Gigi:
Who gave it to you, Aunt?
Aunt Alicia:
A king!
Gigi:
A great king?
Aunt Alicia:
No, a little one. Great kings do not give very large stones.
Gigi:
Why not?
Aunt Alicia:
In my opinion it's because they don't feel they have to.
Gigi:
Well, who does give the valuable jewels?
Aunt Alicia:
Who? Oh the shy, the proud, and the social climbers, because they think it's a sign of culture. But it doesn't matter who gives them, as long as you never wear anything second-rate. Wait for the first-class jewels, Gigi. Hold on to your ideals.
