Lynsey Baxter: Arabella Harlowe, Bella

Quotes 

• Bella : You know the rules. No letters.

  Clarissa : Not even to Anna?

  Bella : Your go-between to Lovelace?

• [Grandfather Harlowe has died and left the entire estate and wealth to his younger granddaughter, Clarissa] 

  Bella : Imagine! Leaving all the family paintings to her, just because she used to tickle with him! And wipe and clean with her own dainty fingers.

  James : [taking Bella's hand]  Dainty? Whose fingers could be daintier than these?

  Bella : He might just as well have left them to the maid.

• Bella : Don't Mr Lovelace say you have fine eyes?

  Clarissa : Is that what he told you?

• Uncle Anthony : [contemplating a union between Clarissa and Lovelace]  But from the point of view of the estate, as long as Bella don't object.

  Bella : Why should I object? She's welcome to my leavings.
