Teddy Lloyd: You should have married old Lowther, you really should. I'm 43 years old, Jean. Now, how old are you?
Jean Brodie: I'm... I'm in my prime!
Teddy Lloyd: Your "prime". LOOK at yourself, Jean! Look at me: a second-rate painter running to seed. You're NOT in your prime, Jean, you're a frustrated spinster taking it out in idiot causes and dangerous ideas. A schoolmarm!

Jean Brodie: Arrivederci.
