AS WE SEE OURSELVES
Every woman can get married if she wants to, unless she is essentially bad tempered, and no sane man will stand for that. —Muriel Morgan Gibbon in "No 7 Paradise." Sometimes I think it is sort of hopeless, having children. I love my children, but I never actually wanted one of them and now I am old not one of them wants me.—Minnie Hite Moody in " Once Again at the Fair." A touch of hardness was the hallmark of fashion. Women's faces were hardened by over-painting . . . plucked eyebrows and discordant smears of red. —Maud Diver in "The Singer Passes." Kose has the capacity of being violently 'maternal only she will think she's a detached and modern young woman. —Francesca Claremont in " Turn Again Ladies." Courtesy ... is rare and exquisite in a woman—la politessse du coeur, as the French call it. —Winifred Graham in " Tongues in Trees."
