Wives and Daughters1999

Roger Hamley:
How are you, was it a very trying day? I thought about you, more than once.

Molly Gibson:
Thank you, I did try to remember what you said and to think more of all this, but you know it's so difficult.

Roger Hamley:
I know, but you know you'll be happier for it by and by.

Molly Gibson:
No, I shan't, and if I'm to kill myself as it were trying to think and behave as other people want me to I feel I might as well never have lived. And as for the happiness you speak of, well I shall never be happy again!
