Ferdinand Munier: Dr. Chambers
Quotes
-
Elizabeth Barrett : Oh Doctor, that reminds me, sit down a minute. You remember PaPa suggesting to you that a certain kind of beer called Porter might do me good?
Dr. Chambers : Yes! And an excellent suggestion, too!
Elizabeth Barrett : Oh, forgive me, but it was nothing of the kind. I've had to drink it twice a day and in consequence my life has become one long misery.
Dr. Chambers : Bless my soul!
Elizabeth Barrett : I'm not exaggerating! One long misery.
Dr. Chambers : You poor little lady.
Elizabeth Barrett : There's no use my opinion to PaPa, but, if, you dear, Doctor Chambers, would suggest to him that something else might be equally beneficial? Why...
Dr. Chambers : What would you say to a couple of glasses of hot milk?
Elizabeth Barrett : Oh, I hate milk. But, I'll drink it all day long if you'll only rescue me from Porter.

Dr. Chambers : You know, the fact is, a change from these surroundings would do you a world of good. Italy's the place for you!
Elizabeth Barrett : Italy? Oh, no Doctor. This is my Italy.
Dr. Chambers : Rubbish. That's just it. You don't want to go anywhere. You don't want to see anybody. Confound it, my dear, isn't there something you want to do?
Elizabeth Barrett : Yes. And I'm doing it. I'm writing poetry. And there are those you think it isn't such bad poetry. Mr. Robert Browning has sent me several letters of approval.
Dr. Chambers : Browning? Never heard of him.
