Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


The night had come on, dim with the light of faint stars. But
these had disappeared behind clouds that seemed to have arisen
from nowhere. It was the beginning of California Indian summer.
The air was warm, with just the first hint of evening chill, and
there was no wind.


"I've a feeling as if we've just started to live," Saxon said,
when Billy, his firewood collected, joined her on the blankets
before the fire. "I've learned more to-day than ten years in
Oakland." She drew a long breath and braced her shoulders.
"Farming's a bigger subject than I thought."
