But I was strict with my daughter, also. And she was older than she was. And she would not go out until she brought the young man to introduce. And then she asked us, and she was very respectful to my present husband.
She asked, "What do you think of him?"
She was 19 already. That little kid was just 14 or 15. So I could not possibly give her more leeway than to my daughter, who was so much older.
Sometimes I think maybe if I wasn't so strict with her, maybe—you never know with children.
Mr. Jenner. Well, now, Mr. De Mohrenschildt's daughter, Alexandra, is now married.
Mrs. De Mohrenschildt. She is divorced.
Can you imagine that?
Mr. Jenner. She has remarried.
Tell me about your present husband. What kind of a person is he?
Mrs. De Mohrenschildt. Well, I tell you. He is a terrific person, absolutely terrific. He has a soul of gold. I really mean it. And sometimes he drives me so crazy, I can just smash his head, because he is so impatient. He is extremely impatient. He is always in a hurry. You have to be 10 times faster than he is in order to have everything quiet. That is about the only quality that I would not like—he is just always in a hurry. He is always rushing somewhere, and everything has to be just immediately. Never a second late.
