Charles Dickens Quotes

She [Mrs. Badger] Was Surrounded In The Drawing-room By Various Objects, Indicative Of Her Painting A Little, Playing The Piano A Little, Playing The Guitar A Little, Playing The Harp A Little, Singing A Little, Working A Little, Reading A Little, Writing Poetry A Little, And Botanizing A Little. She Was A Lady Of About Fifty, I Should Think, Youthfully Dressed, And Of A Very Fine Complexion. If I Add To The Little List Of Her Accomplishments That She Rouged A Little, I Do Not Mean That There Was Any Harm In It.
