“I wish I could make a girl that flirts see herself as others see her.
If you make eyes at a man on the street he will pay you back. It means
that if you don’t care any more than that for yourself why should he? It
takes a whole lot of nerve for a fellow to look a girl in the face and
say: ‘Will you be my wife and partner and help me fight the battle during
life?’ But I think it means a whole lot more to the girl who has to answer
and fight that question; but the fool girl loafs around, waits to be
chosen and takes the first chance she gets and seems to think that if they
get made one the laws of man can make them two again. The divorce laws are
damnable and pernicious.”
