He’s got to have some inner standards worth fighting for or there won’t be any way to bring him into conflict. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That’s all there is to it.” “When death has you by the throat, you don’t mince words.” “The death ... of a beautiful woman, is unquestionably the most poetical topic in the world.” |
