“She has a sense of humor… and brains… life wouldn’t be dull. One would wake up, and there would be a whole day full of jolly things to do. And then we would come home and go to bed… and that would be jolly too.”

With Maturity Comes Despair

“There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well.

*Jane Austen

“It is really a hard life. Men will not be nice to you if you are not good-looking, and women will not be nice to you if you are.”

** Agatha Christie
