Quotation from: The Little Lady of the Big House

Written by: Jack London

"But I do love you, Red Cloud."

"And you say you love him. You can't love both of us."

"But I can. I do. I do love both of you.--Oh, I am straight. I shall
be straight. I must work this out. I thought you might help me. That
is why I came to you this morning. There must be some solution."

She looked at him appealingly as he answered, "It is one or the other,
Evan or me. I cannot imagine any other solution."
