2 " How young and inexperienced I must have seemed, and how I felt it, too. One was too sensitive, too raw, there were thorns and pin-pricks in so many words that in reality fell lightly on air. "
3 " I wondered if it was the same in every home, this feeling of exuberance when visitors had gone. "
4 " I am very different that that self who drove to Manderley for the first time, hopeful and eager, handicapped by a rather desperate gaucherie and filled with awn intense desire to please "
5 " I wanted to go back again, to recapture the moment that had gone, and then it came to me that if we did it would not be the same. "
6 " Je me sentais vaguement épuisée et me demandai, un peu choquée de ma cruauté, pourquoi les personnes âgées étaient si exténuantes. Pires que les jeunes enfants [...] car il fallait se montrer poli. "
7 " ... kindness, and sincerity, and ― if I may say so ― modesty are worth far more to a man, to a husband, than all the wit and beauty in the world. "
