One foot down, then hop! It's hot.

Good things for the ones that's got.

Another jump, now to the left.

She's what my mother used to call "plain," by which she meant an unremarkable-looking girl who was worse off than "the ugly ones." That's how she would say it, and her explanation for such a vile statement couldn't have been more logical. At least in her limited way of thinking, and also in Dorothy's because she shares the same point of view. Pretty girls don't try at all because they don't have to.

All things of the sea belong to Venus; pearls and
shells and alchemists' gold and kelp and the riggish
smell of neap tides, the inshore green, and purple

falling masonry, all these are hers, but she doesn't
come out of the sea for all of us. — John Cheever
