Quotes 

• Marian Brook : [asking about an unopened letter]  Who was that from?

  Agnes Van Rhijn : Your Aunt Ada. No doubt bleating on about her untold happiness. If only it were untold.

• Marian Brook : What does Aunt Ada say?

  Agnes Van Rhijn : What does she always say? She's wonderful, he's wonderful, even the Niagara Falls are wonderful. She seems rather limited in her choice of adjectives.

• Marian Brook : When is Dashiell's party?

  Agnes Van Rhijn : The afternoon of the 21st. What's the matter?

  Marian Brook : That's the afternoon I said I would teach Jane Addams' class.

  Agnes Van Rhijn : Oh, you cannot be serious. You would miss it to teach a bunch of indigents? How will painting help them anyway? What are they to learn next? Gilding? Lace making? How to dive for pearls?

  Marian Brook : I'm teaching them to read and write.

  Agnes Van Rhijn : But why not teach them the following day. They'll still be poor and needy on the 22nd, I promise you.

• Marian Brook : Try to remember that reading is a key, and it will unlock your life if only you'll let it.
