“You mean to say you don’t know?” said Miss Baker, honestly surprised. “I thought everybody knew.”
“But we heard it,” insisted Daisy, surprising me by opening up again in a flower-like way. “We heard it from three people, so it must be true.” “When she’s had five or six cocktails she always starts screaming like that.” (106)
“Have you got a church you go to sometimes, George? Maybe even if you haven’t been there for a long time? Maybe I could call up the church out get a priest to come over and he could talk to you, see?” “Don’t belong to any.” (157)
