Quotation from: The Little Lady of the Big House

Written by: Jack London


The Big House, with all its worthy marvels and bizarre novelties,
competed with the figure of Paula Forrest in filling the content of
his imagination. Once again, and yet again, many times, he saw the
slender fingers of Dar Hyal weaving argument in the air, the black
whiskers of Aaron Hancock enunciating Bergsonian dogmas, the frayed
coat-cuffs of Terrence McFane articulating thanks to God for the two-
legged work-beasties that enabled him to loaf at Dick Forrest's board
and under Dick Forrest's madroño trees.
