[when the police discover that Mr Pritchard was imprisoned as a conscientious objector twenty years ago during World War I, there is animosity from the other residents, both upstairs and downstairs, at Eaton Place]

Sir Hallam Holland:
I'm sorry about all that business with the police. Your private life and your opinions are your own affair. It must have been distressing for you.

Mr. Warwick Pritchard:
I find that when one follows one's conscience, sir, pain is generally felt by *other* people.
