    Mildred Pierce: You look down on me because I work for a living, don’t you? You always have. All right, I work. I cook food and sell it and make a profit on it, which, I might point out, you’re not too proud to share with me.
    Monte Beragon: Yes, I take money from you, Mildred. But not enough to make me like kitchens or cooks. They smell of grease.

    But misery still delights to trace
    Its ‘semblance in another’s case.

    No voice divine the storm allay’d,
    No light propitious shone;
    When, snatch’d from all effectual aid,
    We perish’d, each alone:
    But I beneath a rougher sea,
    And whelm’d in deeper gulphs than he.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)
