Hetty King: It's one of life's challenges. To win you have to study hard, reach down within you, you have to go beyond your expectations. Then you will find that glory awaits you.
Janet King: How like a King! Always has to have the last word.
Hetty: Well, at least we can spell it, unlike you Wards.
Alec King: Cats...amazing creatures, cats. Nine lives, they say. Could be frisky as a kitten in the morning. They're so quick to recuperate.
Andrew King: You see, I've been reading since the age of four and all those words, they're up here.
Peg Bowen: A moment ago you were crying for help like a bleating calf.
