Gone With the Wind: Scarlet Meets Rhett for the First Time (Put the Words into Correct Order)

Scarlet: Don't you want to marry me?

Ashley: I'm going to marry Melanie.

Scarlet: But/ Not/ you/ for/ care/ can't./ me./ if/ you

Ashley: Oh, my dear, why must you make me say things that will hurt you? How can I make you understand? You're so young and unthinking. You don't know what marriage means.

Scarlet: I know I love you, and I want to be your wife. You don't love Melanie.

Ashley: She's like me, Scarlett. She's part of my blood and we understand each other.

Scarlet: love/ me./ you/ But

Ashley: How could I help loving you? You have all the passion for life that I lack. That kind of love isn't enough for a successful marriage...for two people as different as we are.

Scarlet: Well, why don't you say it, you coward. You're afraid to marry me. You'd rather live with that fool who can't speak except...to say "yes" and "no" and raise a passel of mealy-mouthed brats just like her.

Ashley: You mustn't say such things about Melanie.

Scarlet: Who are you to tell me I mustn't? You led me on, you/ me/ me./ you to/ wanted/ believe/ marry/ made

 Ashley: Now, Scarlett, be fair. I never, at any time--

Scarlett: You did, it's true you did! I'll hate you till I die! I can't think of anything bad enough to call you.

Rhett: Has the war started?

Scarlet: Sir, you should have made your presence known.

Rhett: In the middle of that beautiful love scene? That wouldn't have been very tactful, would it? But don't worry, your secret is safe with me.

Scarlet: Sir, you are no gentleman!

Rhett: And you, Miss, are no lady. Don't think I hold that against you. Ladies have never held any charm for me.

Scarlet: First you take a low, common advantage of me, then you insult me.

Rhett: I meant it as a compliment and I hope to see more of you...when you're free of the spell of the elegant Mr. Wilkes. He doesn't strike me as half good enough for a girl of your, what was it? Your "passion for living."

Scarlet: How dare you! You aren't fit to wipe his boots.

Rhett: And/ your/ hate/ rest/ you/ going/ life./ the of /to him/ were/ for
