girl

And now you're just like your sister. Worse even! Who is he? Someone from the wrong side of the tracks, a boy you can't take home and tell your family: "Here he is, he's the one I love, I want to marry him." That's it, isn't it? Answer me, girl! 🔊

And she says yes! Lord help me! I've looked after her since she was a tiny thing : I promised her poor mother I'd bring her up to be a good girl, and here we are! 🔊

Understand... that's all anyone's ever said to me, since I was a little girl. 🔊

Antigone! Please, I'm begging you! It's alright for men to believe in ideas and die for them. You're a girl. 🔊

Not beautiful like us, but in another way. You know it's you that makes the little punks turn their heads when you walk by them; and the girls watch you and suddenly they don't have a thing to say, they just stare until you've gone round the corner. 🔊

I was dumb. I wasn't sure you really wanted me, and I did all that to be a bit more like the other girls, so that you'd feel that way.. 🔊

Don't try to do something that's too hard for you. You're never afraid, but you're just a little girl. Stay with us, don't go out tonight, please Antigone. 🔊

You got it wrong, I says, that's not an animal. It's a girl. 🔊

I was a girl... 🔊

Well I want it all, now, the whole thing - or else I refuse! I don't want to be modest and say a little bit is enough if I've been a good girl. I want to be sure of everything today and I want it to be as wonderful as when I was small - or I want to die! 🔊
