Mrs Birling

• 'I don't think we can help you much.'
• 'girls of that class'
• 'Please don't contradict me like that.'
• ‘you know, my husband was

  Lord Mayor only two years ago

  and hat he’s still a magistrate’
• 'I'm very sorry. But I think she only had herself to blame.'
• 'I've done nothing wrong - and you know it.'
• 'Go and look for the father of the child. It's his responsibility.'
• 'She was giving herself ridiculous airs'
• 'But I accept no blame at all'
• 'find this young man and make sure he's compelled to confess'
• 'so rude...so assertive'
• ‘he certainly didn’t make me confess – I had done no more than my duty’
• ‘I asked her to wait up to make us some tea’
• ‘in the morning they’ll be as amused as we are’
