Quotes
- “She was almost glowing with resolution. She realized that to display moral qualities demands practice, just as much as intellectual and manual qualities.”
- “She had rather looked down on such shops and on such clothes, but that had been ignorance and the wrong kind of sophistication.”
- “I don’t spend all day reading the newspapers. It can get hold of you as poisonously as the television, if you once let it.”
- “Upon the passage to truth, cross-currents are to be expected.”
- “The idea came to him, not for the first time, that most of the things which people buy in the belief that they are luxuries are really poor substitutes for luxury.”
- “It was, in any case, quite useless, and, like most useless things, useless almost immediately.”
