Taglines Sue Bridehead Haven't we been punished enough? Please don't call me a clever girl, Mr Phillotson, there are too many of us these days. [Sue has just spurned Jude again] Promise me you'll never stop trying. It's right that I suffer. They locked me up for being out with you, so I jumped out of the window, climbed over a fence, crossed the deepest river in England and here I am! You're still Joseph, the dreamer of dreams. And the tragic Don Quixote. Sometimes you are a St. Stephen, who sees Heaven open up, even as they're stoning him. Jude Fawley [last lines] We are man and wife, if ever were two people on this earth. Dialogue Sue Bridehead: Why are you looking at me like that? Jude Fawley: Does it scare you? Sue Bridehead: No. I am not afraid of any man. Jude Fawley: Why? Sue Bridehead: Because no man would touch a woman unless she gives him a reason to. A touch or a look that say come on. If you never look, they'll never come. You are the timid sex. Sue Bridehead: I would have liked to have talked with her before she died. Jude Fawley: She would have enjoyed that. Sue Bridehead: What did she say? Jude Fawley: She said we both make bad husbands and wives. Sue Bridehead: Do I irritate you? Jude Fawley: No. Sue Bridehead: Even though I'm always trying to prove how cleverer than you I am. Jude Fawley: You are! Sue Bridehead: Don't say that! Jude Fawley: Why not? Sue Bridehead: Because it's not the sort of thing you should admit to! Jude Fawley: Even if it's true?
