Liliom

You said you'd throw me out, didn't you? Well, that suits me; I'm thrown out.


Mrs. Muskat

[Softening.] Do you have to take up every word I say?


Liliom

It's all right; it's all settled. I'm a good-for-nothing. And a conceited pig. And I'm discharged.


Mrs. Muskat

Do you want to ruin my business?


Liliom

A good-for-nothing? Now I know! And I'm discharged! Very good.


Mrs. Muskat

You're a devil, you are . . . and that woman——


Liliom

Keep away from her!


Mrs. Muskat

I'll get Hollinger to give you such a beating that you'll hear all the angels sing . . . and it won't be the first time, either.
