Coward, ‘Cavalcade’, part II, sc. V) — Эдит: "...Эти чувства, которые мы сейчас питаем друг к другу, охладеют с годами. Позолота сотрется... и мы забудем, как это было прекрасно когда-то."

Snow, ‘The Masters’, ch. 46) — - Крофорд, дружище, - сказал Тей, - а я думал, что вы без меня не сможете понять прелести вашего нового поста. Теперь я должен буду называть вас шефом. Поздравляю.
