I have noticed one thing, Monsieur Callé.
gpt
What is that, madame?
human
That there's a lot about love in all plays.
gpt
Yes, that is true; you are right; they bring it in everywhere.
human
Why is it, monsieur?
gpt
Why, madame, it is, apparently, because the authors don't know how to talk about anything else.
human
Do you think so? I have heard people say that the stage was simply a copy of what happens in real life. But in real life people don't talk about love all the time, do they, monsieur?
gpt
Oh, no! madame, they don't always talk about it--although often--one would like to talk about it--but one doesn't dare.
human
Oho! so it's because one doesn't dare. That is a great mistake! It seems to me that it's more interesting, more entertaining, than any other subject.
