life and love are very precious when both are in full bloom.

You are the gull, Jo, strong and wild, fond of the storm and the wind, flying far out to sea, and happy all alone.

But, like all happiness, it did not last long.

A little kingdom I possess, where thoughts and feelings dwell; And very hard the task I find of governing it well.

But the spirit of Eve is strong in all her daughters.

If you dear little girls would only learn what real beauty is, and not pinch and starve and bleach yourselves out so, you'd save an immense deal of time and money and pain. A happy soul in a healthy body makes the best sort of beauty for man or woman.

I hate ordinary people!
