Yes: things that shewed you thought and felt about me as if I
were something better than a scullery-maid; though of course I
know you would have been just the same to a scullery-maid if
she had been let into the drawing room. You never took off your
boots in the dining room when I was there.

PICKERING


You mustnt mind that. Higgins takes off his boots all
over the place.

LIZA


I know. I am not blaming him. It is his way, isnt it? But it
made such a difference to me that you didnt do it. You see,
really and truly, apart from the things anyone can pick up (the
dressing and the proper way of speaking, and so on), the
difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she
behaves, but how she’s treated. I shall always be a flower girl
to Professor Higgins, because he always treats me as a flower
girl, and always will; but I know I can be a lady to you,
because you always treat me as a lady, and always will.

MRS HIGGINS


Please dont grind your teeth, Henry.
