"The distinction between indoors and outdoors, which in England is usually so marked, was temporarily suspended in a hot gauzy haze."
"There are girls who do not like real life... Some of these girls are innocent enough to think that these unreal friendships will lead to true love — a kind of sexual intercourse that will happen to them without their having to take too horribly much notice. Even those who are sufficiently sophisticated to know that this will not be so persist in these relationships. They provide an opportunity to lavish emotion on a pseudo-man without paying the price that in heterosexual circumstances would be inevitable."
