    He said, "Were he only like his sister-what a difference that would make! For there never was such a sweet and gentle lady! I hear her footsteps, as she goes about the world.

  12. Marilynne Robinson _ Housekeeping

    Having a sister or a friend is like sitting at night in a lighted house. Those outside can watch you if they want, but you need not see them.

If you wish us to suffer your envious curiosity, you must permit us not to notice it." Anyone with one solid human bond is that smug, and it is the smugness as much as the comfort and safety that lonely people covet and admire.
