Judith said: “When I love I’ll never stop to haggle about it —to wonder or doubt. I’ll throw everything to the winds —EVERYTHING —and follow him!” Sandy put her hand against the deep pocket of her sweater. Three letters were pinned there. They were from Ramon.

You don’t know, Jude how’d you feel if your mother came crying and crying to you and telling you that you'd lowered her heart to the dust and trampled on it—” Sandy bit her lips: "Os course, you wouldn't have been driven to it, Jude. And neither would I if T weren't utterly worthless. Sometimes I think it was what Ally calls my 'almighty conceit’ that got me into it. I thought I was so gorgeous I could do whatever I wanted with a man.

Suppose that came to you and then later you met a real love.” “I’d take it.” said Judith breathlessly. "When you greatly love you have no choice. It’s not love If it can be denied. It's not the mighty thing—the one, great, tremendous thing, because when it's that it’s bigger than you or 1 or anyone.” “You’d take It even If you were : married to another?" whispered Sandy.
