Penny Dreadful2014
[Vanessa and John Clare speak about words and religion]
Vanessa Ives:
[Vanessa whispers as the two see a group of nuns] They make me nervous.
John Clare:
Who?
Vanessa Ives:
The nuns.
John Clare:
Why?
Vanessa Ives:
I was raised in the faith. It was arduous for me. Have you religion?
John Clare:
Are you offering it?
Vanessa Ives:
Do you require it?
John Clare:
I never have.
John Clare:
Then I shan't offer. And I would be a poor advocate. The Almighty and I have a challenging past. Not sure we're speaking these days.
John Clare:
[John chuckles] I read the Bible when I was younger. But. Then I discovered Wordsworth, and the old platitudes and parables seemed anemic. Even unnecessary.
Vanessa Ives:
Mr. Wordsworth has a lot to answer for, then. [John chuckles again]
