Notable Quotes
"Doing nothing can sometimes be the most effective form of action."
"Remember, every treasure comes with a price."
"Eleanor had a long-held theory about men. She truly believed that for most men, all that talk of “being in love” or “finding the right one” was absolute nonsense. Marriage was purely a matter of timing, and whenever a man was finally done sowing his wild oats and ready to settle down, whichever girl happened to be there at the time would be the right one."
