Louisa Stockbridge Quotes in Gosford Park (2001)

[Many years ago, Sylvia and Louisa cut cards to decide which of them would marry Sir William. Louisa lost]

Constance: Anyone care for a game of bridge after dinner? Louisa, how about you?

Louisa Stockbridge: Oh, I don't think so. I've rather gone off cards. I've never been very lucky with them.

Sir William McCordle: Me too.

Lavinia Meredith: I don't care what's changed or not changed as long as our sons are spared what you all went through.

Lady Sylvia McCordle: Not all. You never fought, did you, William?

Sir William McCordle: I did my bit.

Louisa Stockbridge: Of course you did.

Lady Sylvia McCordle: Well, you made a lot of money but it's not quite the same as charging into the cannon's mouth, is it?

Raymond Stockbridge: Well, I think it's ridiculous. I'm here to shoot.

Louisa Stockbridge: Darling, it's a relief for me to sit next someone who isn't deaf in one ear.

Raymond Stockbridge: I'm sorry?

Louisa Stockbridge: I didn't expect anything half as exotic.
