Sydney Carton:
Yours is a long life to look back on, Mr. Lorry?
Jarvis Lorry Jr.:
I'm 78.
Sydney Carton:
Long life... useful one.
Jarvis Lorry Jr.:
A solitary bachelor - nobody would weep for me.
Sydney Carton:
Wouldn't SHE weep for you? [refers to Lucie]
Jarvis Lorry Jr.:
Yes, thank God. I didn't quite mean what I said.
Sydney Carton:
It is a thing to thank God for, isn't it. Tell me, if you looked back on that long life and saw that you had gained neither love, gratitude nor respect of any human being... it would be a bitter reflection, wouldn't it?
Jarvis Lorry Jr.:
Why yes, surely.
