Quotes by Laura Auricchio  (?)

“On the road to Paris, he noticed something unusual: the men he passed did not tip their hats in deference to his position. For most of us, the process of growing up entails discovering the limits of our own, individual significance. But few people can pinpoint with precision the exact moment of that humbling realization. For Lafayette, it was seared into his memory.”
Laura Auricchio, The Marquis: Lafayette Reconsidered

“As the father of five girls, d’Ayen faced the unenviable task of assembling five dowries hefty enough for five sons-in-law to accept.”
Laura Auricchio, The Marquis: Lafayette Reconsidered

“If not for a series of almost freakishly premature deaths, he might have inherited nothing at all.”
Laura Auricchio, The Marquis: Lafayette Reconsidered
