“If you need me, I shall be weeping at the bottom of my wardrobe.”
“The depth of your wardrobe dazzles the mind. Ralph Lauren weeps.”
“MRS ARBUTHNOT For me the world is shriveled to a palm's breath, and where I walk there are thorns.HESTER It shall not be so. We shall somewhere find green valleys and fresh waters, and if we weep, well, we shall weep together.”
“Weep all the artful tears you like. You shall never make my hard heart the softer.”
“I grow old … I grow old … I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.”
“So bring me this man, trembling and shivering from head to foot; let me fall into his arms or down at his knees; he will weep and we shall weep, he will be eloquent and I shall be comforted, and my heart shall melt into his, he will take my soul, and I his God.But what is this kindly old gentleman to me? And what am I to him? Just one more member of the race of unfortunates, one more shade to go with the many he has seen, one more figure to add to his total of executions.”
