Louis Auchincloss Quotes

I Didn't Have To Say Another Word, And I Had The Sense Not To. I Had Gained Sumner's Full Attention, And That Was All I Needed. He Looked At Me; He Really Saw Me, For Perhaps The First Time, And Pa Thereafter Got Only His Second Glances. I Won't Say That I Caught Sumner With Three Words, But They Gave Me A Start. To Keep Up His Image Of The Bright And Thoughtful Woman He Had Idealized For Himself I Had Only To Let Him Develop His Own Conception. I Wouldn't Have To Do A Thing Until We Get Married. Then, Of Course, I Could Relax. Hasn't That Been The Story Of Millions Of Women?
