Alias Grace (TV Mini Series)

Part 3 (2017)

Paul Gross: Thomas Kinnear

Quotes 

• Thomas Kinnear : Well, you've not been in town five minutes and you have managed to attract gentleman admirers.

  Grace Marks : They are not.

  Thomas Kinnear : Not gentlemen, or not admirers?

• Thomas Kinnear : The Apocrypha is a book where they put all the stories from Biblical times they decided should not go in the Bible.

  Grace Marks : Who decided? I thought the Bible was written by God. It is called the Word of God and everyone terms it so.

  Thomas Kinnear : Perhaps God wrote it, but it was men who wrote it down, which is a little different. But those men were said to have been inspired by God, which means he spoke to them, told them what to do.

  Grace Marks : Did they hear voices?

  Thomas Kinnear : Aye.

  Grace Marks : [recounting to Simon]  I was glad to hear that someone else had heard voices too, though I didn't say that. In any case, the voice I had heard, that one time, had not been God's but Mary Whitney's.

• Thomas Kinnear : Remain where you are.

  [Motioning for Grace to remain sitting as he comes into her presence] 

  Thomas Kinnear : I would rather have good butter then a curtsy.
