“But, Mrs Van Hoosier, if I may make so bold-'
'You may not,' She inserted another cake into her mouth and chewed it so angrily I all but felt sorry for it. When it was finally dead she turned and fixed me a look, as though she were a scientist and I some kind of bug she was microscoping.”
― Florence and Giles

“She was mantelpieced by a large bosom [...] you could have stood things on it, a vase of flowers and a bust of Beethoven, and a family photograph or two, maybe.”

“O Cisne
Foi em abril, eu me lembro, embora em meu espírito fosse dezembro,
Que um pássaro ferido foi retirado da escuridão do lago,
As penas brancas brilharam ao sol, e de sua boca escorreu a água negra,
Enquanto por dentro minha voz gritava até pensar que meu coração iria se partir;
Fui eu quem assistiu à sua morte, seguindo à deriva, à deriva, esperando em sua vigília
Que Deus levasse sua alma.”
