Quote by George Leonard Herter

“The bone dagger that is being held in the photograph was made from the leg of Governor Rockefeller's son who was killed and eaten in Indonesia. There are fortunes to be made in Indonesia buying crocodile skins but the climate is hot and humid and not at all desirable.”

“While crocodiles kill hundreds of people in Africa each year, the local people have learnt to live with the danger and often bathe in crocodile areas. This strikes me as reckless - yet if the people here were to visit London or New York they might wonder how people could possibly live with so much dangerous traffic careening around and all the cancerous pollution choking the air.”

“She smiled. Her skin looked whiter than he recalled, and dark spidery veins were beginning to show beneath its surface. Her hair was still the color of spun silver and her eyes were still green as a cat’s. She was still beautiful. Looking at her, he was in London again. He saw the gaslight and smelled the smoke and dirt and horses, the metallic tang of fog, the flowers in Kew Gardens. He saw a boy with black hair and blue eyes like Alec’s, heard violin music like the sound of silver water. He saw a girl with long brown hair and a serious face. In a world where everything went away from him eventually, she was one of the few remaining constants. And then there was Camille.”

In a true partnership, the kind that lasts through the ages, there is an unspoken communion.”

“He did not love her, but she was a dream out of the past, so he moved toward her, until he was standing close enough to touch her. "Remember," she said softly. "Remember London?”
