SIR PETER.
Very well, ma'am, very well, so a husband is to have no influence, no authority?
LADY TEAZLE.
Authority! No, to be sure. If you wanted authority over me, you should have adopted me and not married me; I am sure you were old enough.
~ Richard Brinsley Sheridan, The School for Scandal (2.1)
