Favorite Quotes


"Noble deeds and hot baths are the best cures for depression."

"Contemplation seems to be about the only luxury that costs nothing."

"I am never happy when the elements go to extremes."


Three favorite quotes from one of my favorite novels, I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith. All three come from the main character, Cassandra. (A book well-worth reading. And far better than the movie, though that's not half-bad.)

It's funny you should post this because I've noticed this book on my shelf recently and thought of rereading it. It was very enjoyable and, I agree, much better than the movie.

Hi Heidi! Thanks for visiting and for commenting. And I'm quite jealous of your 1940s copy of ICTC! :-)
