Stanley Loomis Quotes

The Comtesse's Fellow Prisoners In This Antechamber To Death Were Characteristic Of The Ill-assorted Gatherings Thrown Together In Revolutionary Prisons: Duchesses And Prostitutes, Actresses And Politicians: The Duchesse De Crequy-Montmorency And Madame Roland; Madame Du Barry And Madame Brissot; The Random Debris Of A Sunken Ship Thrown Together For A Moment By The Tide Of Fortune And A Moment Later Violently Dispersed. All Of Them Were Already Ghosts, Standing On The Shoreline Of The Last Limits Of Life, Waiting Their Turn For Charon And His Grim Tumbrel To Ferry Them Across The Styx.
