1 If you can preach, I can teach.
2 I don't want no balmies teaching me.
3 If I decide to teach you, I'll be worse than two fathers to you.
4 When Eliza referred again to her project of teaching phonetics, Higgins abated not a jot of his violent opposition to it.
5 She has a quick ear; and she's been easier to teach than my middle-class pupils because she's had to learn a complete new language.
6 If this girl is to put herself in your hands for six months for an experiment in teaching, she must understand thoroughly what she's doing.
7 Your daughter had the audacity to come to my house and ask me to teach her how to speak properly so that she could get a place in a flower-shop.
8 Well, you wouldn't have the face to ask me the same for teaching me my own language as you would for French; so I won't give more than a shilling.
9 I'll advertize it in the papers that your duchess is only a flower girl that you taught, and that she'll teach anybody to be a duchess just the same in six months for a thousand guineas.
10 But the effort that cost her the deepest humiliation was a request to Higgins, whose pet artistic fancy, next to Milton's verse, was calligraphy, and who himself wrote a most beautiful Italian hand, that he would teach her to write.
11 He declared that she was congenitally incapable of forming a single letter worthy of the least of Milton's words; but she persisted; and again he suddenly threw himself into the task of teaching her with a combination of stormy intensity, concentrated patience, and occasional bursts of interesting disquisition on the beauty and nobility, the august mission and destiny, of human handwriting.
12 When a bachelor interests, and dominates, and teaches, and becomes important to a spinster, as Higgins with Eliza, she always, if she has character enough to be capable of it, considers very seriously indeed whether she will play for becoming that bachelor's wife, especially if he is so little interested in marriage that a determined and devoted woman might capture him if she set herself resolutely to do it.
