Period-Drama Movie Quote Quiz

We have been having a drastically busy few weeks, so do pardon our lack-of-posting here! Hopefully things will even out next week or so! :) We were rudely awakened this morning by all our terribly ear-piercing fire alarms going off, for no good reason. Hmph. Didn't much like that! :) And Dad had to scurry around for 1/2 an hour trying to shut them all off. He turned off the power, but they defaulted to battery, so he had to find the troublemaker, take its batteries out, and then it finally stopped! :) But any-who! I thought we'd do another movie-quote quiz, because this is something I can leave up for a bit, and let people comment on. In previous times, we have only had 3 or 4 people enter. So pretty please comment and guess! Even if you only know one, it will make us feel better! :D Hint: all these quotes are from period-dramas. And in that category, I'd include Little Women...even Anne of Green Gables. (Though I'm not promising I'll use quotes from there. Just that sort as well as others!)

Here we go!

1.) "She won't even let me reapply the blacking to her hair! There is a great gray streak going right down her centre part!!!" :D

2.) "She seems to expwess herself vewy fwankly, Clare!"

3. ) "I made money overnight? How very clever of me!"

4.) "Roger Riderhood. Sometimes known as "Rogue" Riderhood. But that's a friendly name used only by thems that don't know me well."

5.) "....I encourage him in that too." ;)
6.) "What care I for a cold when there is such a man?"

7.) "I abhor the notion of being over-trimmed!" :D

8.) "She says that Col. Willis says that Mr. Elliott says--" "That's enough!"

9.) "Do you think he could be a captive like Smee in Nicholas Nickleby?" (By the way, I've read the mentioned book, and it is "smike" not "smee"! :[ )

10.) "People's ideals change sometimes...."

There you have it! Please enter if you have a single inkling of a single quote! :) If this works better than some I've done, then maybe we can have another one soon! :) -Rachel
