Jean Webster Quotes

I Look Forward All Day To Evening, And Then I Put An "engaged" On The Door And Get Into My Nice Red Bath Robe And Furry Slippers And Pile All The Cushions Behind Me On The Couch, And Light The Brass Student Lamp At My Elbow, And Read And Read And Read. One Book Isn't Enough. I Have Four Going At Once. Just Now, They're Tennyson's Poems And "Vanity Fair" And Kipling's "Plain Tales" And - Don't Laugh - "Little Women." I Find That I Am The Only Girl In College Who Wasn't Brought Up On "Little Women." I Haven't Told Anybody Though (that Would Stamp Me As Queer). I Just Quietly Went And Bought It With $1.12 Of My Last Month's Allowance; And The Next Time Somebody Mentions Pickled Limes, I'll Know What She Is Talking About!
