"You hope to hold him by one of these?"
"I hope to hold him by being what he needs."

"And you? What are your chances of happiness?"
"Happiness is always a chance, isn't it? I've played for a big stake, but I'll stand by the risk. My days are full to the brim, with new problems to meet, new questions to answer. You must not worry about me, dear friend," she concluded, her hand on his.
"Not I. You're on the high seas now, but I trust you absolutely, Captain Jane."
"Hi, there, Bride, are you lost in the cedar chest?" called Jerry from below.
"No, we are just coming down," she answered.
