"He is painting her, as Melisande."
"Do you have to have her here all the time?"
"I don't see much of her. Poor Jerry has her."
"Poor Jerry likes her. Just when you begin to think that women are getting somewhere—being something fine and busy and loyal—then you run into an Althea, and smash goes the dream!"
"Dear, we can't change our natures in one generation, nor two, nor three. When we come back a few centuries from now, think what splendid creatures women will be!"
"Lord, Jane, I don't want to come back!"
"I do—just to see my twenty-fifth great-granddaughter!"
"What gets me is that a man with brains like Jerry can endure that old sex stuff! Flattery, sentiment, adoration—bah!"
"Men can't change in a minute either, Bobs!"
"To live with a woman like you and waste one minute with Althea—well—it's weak minded, that's what it is."
