Lord Delves Quotes in Roberta (1935)

Lord Delves: This John from America, who is he?

Roberta: My nephew! I met him when I was there a few years ago and took a great fancy to him. He's quite famous in his way. All-American half-back or three-quarters back or something.

Lord Delves: Really?

Roberta: Yes! You know it's queer, but, when you happen to like your relatives, you like them better than other people.

Lord Delves: [to John] Goodbye, young man. I'm off to catch a train. But, in a fortnight, I'll be back. Then, as I understand is the custom in your country, we'll "go places" and "do something".
