I was writing of something I did not know about, and it seems to me that in a so-called writer this is criminal.

I have met so many people who, at the first opportunity, try to show their very worst qualities. They hide their inner strength behind aggression; they hide their fear of loneliness behind an air of independence. They do not believe in their own abilities, but are constantly trumpeting their virtues.

..her smile, which was her pretty feature, was never so pretty as when her sprightly phrase had a scratch lurking in it.
