Elizabeth Von Arnim Quotes

She Had Gone To Sleep On These Facts Years Ago, After A Period Of Much Misery, Her Head Resting On Them As On A Pillow; And She Had A Great Dread Of Being Awakened Out Of So Simple And Untroublesome A Condition. Therefore It Was That She Searched With Earnestness For A Heading Under Which To Put Mrs. Wilkins, And In This Way Illumine And Steady Her Own Mind; And Sitting There Looking At Her Uneasily After Her Last Remark, And Feeling Herself Becoming More And More Unbalanced And Infected, She Decided Pro Tem, As The Vicar Said At Meetings, To Put Her Under The Heading Nerves. It Was Just Possible That She Ought To Go Straight Into The Category Hysteria, Which Was Often Only The Antechamber To Lunacy, But Mrs. Arbuthnot Had Learned Not To Hurry People Into Their Final Categories, Having On More Than One Occasion Discovered With Dismay That She Had Made A Mistake; And How Difficult It Had Been To Get Them Out Again, And How Crushed She Had Been With The Most Terrible Remorse. Yes.
