Sir Danvers Carew

Famous quotes containing the words danvers and/or carew:

    Mrs. de Winter: Mrs. Danvers must be furious with me.
    Maxim de Winter: Oh, hang Mrs. Danvers! Why on earth should you be frightened of her? You behave more like an upstairs maid or something, not like the mistress of the house at all.
    Mrs. de Winter: Yes, I know I do. But I feel so uncomfortable. I try my best every day, but it’s very difficult with people looking you up and down as if you were a prize cow.
    Robert E. Sherwood (1896–1955)

    And here the precious dust is layd;
    Whose purely temper’d Clay was made
    So fine, that it the guest betray’d.

    Else the soule grew so fast within,
    It broke the outward shell of sinne,
    And so was hatch’d a Cherubin.
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
