Quote by Yvonna Russell

“A man of leisure, Rupert’s sweet life of polo, yachting, poker parties, lunches, galas, and dinner parties did not include earning one’s way. Just a weekend fling I didn't have a dowry of $45,000,000 in euros. How Henry James!”

She only makes it seem that way. "You self-righteous bastard," said Hazan angrily. "You really think this is the time to be melodramatic?”
