[Referring to her unfinished portraiture]
You paint me as a happy mother. I'm not very happy. I'm scarcely a mother... and yet I smile because I'm supposed to be happy.
Lawrence:
No, Lady Rohan; you smile because you're fortunate.
Clarissa Marr:
Aren't they the same thing?
Lawrence:
A dairy maid can be happy; but she's not obliged to smile when she's wretched. The fortunate must pay their debt. A great lady must never been seen without a smile.
