The house is in this strange and wonderful disarray of being half Christmas and half Thanksgiving. There are tubs of Christmas waiting to be unpacked and window sills still full of pumpkins and little scarecrows. “Thankful”

“Eden, I had planned to use that information to hold you grandfather overfire. I intended to force him to return what Townsend stole through manipulating my mother. I wouldn't want you to think otherwise. I went to a lot of trouble to get that story over a two year period of my life."
She knew it had cost him. It was still costing him because he had allowed his work to slip through his fingers.
And you surrendered it," she said. "Why? You could have won. Grandfather would have given you what you watned to keep you from publishing the story. He would have made Townsend cooperate."
Rafe looked off in the distance...

You're a hothouse flower, very soft, very appealing and very useless...In the world you are going to, men want pretty useless women. They want toys for their lighte moments, and we have those women out here, too, only we have another name for them. We want women who can make a home, and if need be, handle a rifle.”
