[Richard doesn't answer the question about whether or not he can remember England, either feigning obtuseness or just because he finds her other question to be more important.
(He can remember it though. He was born there after all. He remembers the grey weather, the grey castles, his nurse singing scraps of English songs, playing with his sisters, fighting with his brothers, and always running after his father, wanting so badly to be noticed.)
England is just an objective now. One more piece of his rightful inheritance.]
I can't abide boring people, women or men. Nothing is more dull than a girl with no ambitions beyond embroidery.
