Geoffrey Hamilton Quotes in The Little Princess (1939)

Geoffrey Hamilton: Don't be frightened, Sara. It's only my grandfather.

Lord Wickham: Don't you believe him, young woman! I disowned him the day he was born!

Geoffrey Hamilton: And we're really very fond of each other.

Lord Wickham: Of course we are - what? Wait till I see the woman who runs this school! I'll put a spoke in your wheel!

Geoffrey Hamilton: Do! She'd love to know my grandfather is Lord Wickham, and she'll probably raise my salary!

Lord Wickham: Insolent pup! Just like his father!

Geoffrey Hamilton: Rose, something's wrong. What is it?

Rose Hamilton: Miss Minchin has taken away my Thursday afternoons.

Geoffrey Hamilton: But why?

Rose Hamilton: We mustn't be seen together.

Geoffrey Hamilton: Does that mean that I can never see you alone again?

Rose Hamilton: Of course not, darling. No matter what Miss Minchin says, we'll find a way.

Geoffrey Hamilton: I can't understand the woman! What is she so afraid of? Why shouldn't we see each other?

Rose Hamilton: Gossip, I suppose. Miss Minchin lives for that school and her ideas of pride and snobbishness.

Geoffrey Hamilton: Fiddlesticks! She's afraid of losing an excellent teacher whom she gets for nothing! I won't stand for it! I'll have a talk with her myself!

Rose Hamilton: Oh no, darling, you mustn't do that. She'd only discharge us both.

Geoffrey Hamilton: She might not have the chance if things continue to pop in South Africa.

Sara Crewe: It's getting harder every day to pretend my father is safe.

Geoffrey Hamilton: I'll let you in on a little secret. I enlisted today, but while I don't want Miss Rose to know quite yet, I'll be going over there shortly.

Sara Crewe: To Mafeking? Then perhaps you can help my father.

Geoffrey Hamilton: We'll get him out.
