"Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies for instance."

"You are funny like a kid and awesome like a princess. Unseen like an angel, like the morning sunshine, Kindness like a river and highness like a mountain, In the middle of the Rheine, the cute face and sweet lips, (La la la la, La la , mmmm , mm). Keep the lovely smile, in your juicy icy eyes, Open the heaven for my eyes, forever angel voice, Never angry never harsh, never mad never marsh, Dear or darling, either diamond or dime, Overall the dream of the world."

Amber Hurdle

"There was no question about it- the girl in the photograph was staggeringly beautiful. She was Miss Canal Zone, a runner-up in the Miss Universe Contest -- and in fact far more beautiful than the winner of the contests. Her beauty had frightened the judges."

"Today Amanda was dressed in a gown of soft pink wool trimmed in corded silk ribbon of a deeper shade. She had worn a bonnet adorned with China roses, which now reposed on the side of his desk, a pair of velvet ribbons draping gently toward the floor. The pink shade of the gown brought out the color in Amanda's cheeks, while the simple cut displayed her generous figure to its best advantage. Aside from Jack's considerable regard for her intelligence, he couldn't help thinking of her as a tidy little bonbon."
