Stephen Crane Quotes

To Her The Earth Was Composed Of Hardships And Insults. She Felt Instant Admiration For A Man Who Openly Defied It. She Thought That If The Grim Angel Of Death Should Clutch His Heart, Pete Would Shrug His Shoulders And Say, "Oh, Ev'ryt'ing Goes."
She Anticipated That He Would Come Again Shortly. She Spent Some Of Her Week's Pay In The Purchase Of Flowered Cretonne For A Lambrequin. She Made It With Infinite Care, And Hung It To The Slightly Careening Mantel Over The Stove In The Kitchen. She Studied It With Painful Anxiety From Different Points In The Room. She Wanted It To Look Well On Sunday Night When, Perhaps, Jimmie's Friend Would Come. On Sunday Night, However, Pete Did Not Appear.
Afterwards The Girl Looked At It With A Sense Of Humiliation. She Was Now Convinced That Pete Was Superior To Admiration For Lambrequins.
