Judy Cornwell: Daisy

Quotes 

• Daisy : [referring to a knock at the door in the middle of the night]  Suppose it's a mad strangler!

  Onslow : They don't usually knock on the door.

• Daisy : [referring to their father and Mrs Braddock]  He can't stand her.

  Onslow : Well, why did he promise to marry her?

  Daisy : He said he didn't. He said he only offered her a temporary position.

  Rose : I know just how she feels!

• Onslow : How come he doesn't want to marry her? He usually wants to marry everybody.

  Daisy : Mrs Braddock's horrible.

  Onslow : Everybody he's ever been involved with has been horrible!

  Daisy : Maybe he likes horrible.

  Rose : It's amazing how many do. You should see what some of my gentlemen friends have to go home to.

  Daisy : I could never settle for horrible. It always has to be stylish.

  Onslow : That was alright when I was young, Daise, but it can be a heck of a strain; the constant battle to remain attractive.
